<H3><A NAME="s3">3. Configuration</A></H3>
|
|
|
|
<P>Using the option menu one can control much of konsole's appearance.
|
|
The configuration is both available using the menu bar or clicking
|
|
on konsole's window with the right mouse button.
|
|
<UL>
|
|
<LI>Menu Bar
|
|
<P>Having this option checked provides a menu bar in the top of the
|
|
window. Different from the regular behavior, the menu bar does
|
|
not accept "hot keys" to prevent making some ALT-key combinations
|
|
unusable for the client applications.
|
|
<P>
|
|
</LI>
|
|
<LI>Frame
|
|
<P>Selects whether a decorating border is to be drawn.
|
|
<P>
|
|
</LI>
|
|
<LI>Scrollbar
|
|
<P>Having a scrollbar provides another way to control the history
|
|
buffer. Do not confuse this feature with scrolling inside the
|
|
client application, although it often may (and shall) look like.
|
|
<P>
|
|
</LI>
|
|
<LI>Font
|
|
<P>The font menu offers two completely different adjustments.
|
|
First, a collection of fonts of different sizes given, so
|
|
that a font that matches both the resolution and the prefered
|
|
window size can be chosen. Second, there is one additional
|
|
"Linux" font, that is different from all the above by it's
|
|
encoding. One needs to have this font set when running a
|
|
linux console emulation.
|
|
<P>
|
|
</LI>
|
|
<LI>Size
|
|
<P>While the size of the window is freely adjustable by the regular
|
|
means, it may sometimes be desireable to set the size of konsole
|
|
window to match the requierements of old, size unaware programs.
|
|
The size menu offeres the most often used sizes. If non of them
|
|
match, resize the screen due to your needs. When the size is
|
|
changed, konsole displays it in the title to help with the
|
|
adjustment.
|
|
<P>
|
|
</LI>
|
|
<LI>Color Schema
|
|
<P>This option allows one to select a color schema.
|
|
(A section explaining how is missing, see /opt/kde/share/apps/konsole
|
|
for some examples.)
|
|
<P>
|
|
</LI>
|
|
</UL>
|
|
<P>For more historical reasons, the backspace key shall not emit
|
|
CTRL-H when running with Linux. (The only application that i
|
|
know which really depends on this special behavior is "emacs",
|
|
where CTRL-H means "Help"). Although every application is
|
|
properly configurable, so one could have configured emacs to
|
|
accept F1 as the help key, an uncommon use of the keyboard
|
|
codes has been traditionalized. Don't worry about it, just
|
|
make sure that the option
|
|
<UL>
|
|
<LI>BS sends DEL</LI>
|
|
</UL>
|
|
|
|
is checked.
|
|
<P>In this case, konsole send a DEL character (hex 7F) when pressing
|
|
the backspace key instead of the regular BS character (hex 08).
|
|
The delete key is also sending something different from the DEL
|
|
character in this case.
|
|
<P>All the above options take effect immediately but only for the
|
|
current invocation. To make the adjustments permanent, click the
|
|
option:
|
|
<UL>
|
|
<LI>Save options</LI>
|
|
</UL>
|
