From konsole-devel Wed May 23 19:51:21 2007 From: Tuomas Nurmi Date: Wed, 23 May 2007 19:51:21 +0000 To: konsole-devel Subject: [Konsole-devel] [Bug 143313] I would like to see konsole to support Message-Id: <20070523195121.12402.qmail () ktown ! kde ! org> X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=konsole-devel&m=117994989322958 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143313 ------- Additional Comments From outolumo iki fi 2007-05-23 21:51 ------- As konsole is responsible for _sending_ user input to the program running in the terminal, it could check if the program is a shell if so, act as a wrapper for that. (Face it: using a shell is a fairly common practise among konsole users.) Now, if the program running in konsole is a shell - and konsole knows it - it could intercept the user input before it gets delivered to the shell and check if there is something that would be appropriate to be handled by an ioslave (for example a reference to http or webdav) and make an appropriate decision. Equally, for output it could search for redirects (">") to such places and take the appropriate measure. If this option was enabled as a command line parameter, it would make it possible to write kio-aware shell scripts. Of course it would need to be disabled by default, or it would confuse the truly network-aware apps, like links or wget. On the other hand, having this functionaity would give increased "it just works" feeling to all users of kde. _______________________________________________ konsole-devel mailing list konsole-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/konsole-devel
