[gentoo-user] KDE - specifically kwin question

[CJoeB]

Hi all,

For the longest time, it has driven me nuts that when you are doing an
emerge in a terminal window (kwin) in KDE, it doesn't display the
progress - i.e. emerge 1 of 5).

With my new and fresh installation of gentoo and kde, I figured out that
by right-clicking on the tab at the bottom of the terminal window and
choosing "Rename" and selecting the %w option, I can get this to
display.  However, I can't seem to figure out how to make it stick
because on closing the window and reopening it, the effect that I want
goes away.  I've looked through all the menu items for configuring kwin
and am not seeing what I need to get this to stick.  I've googled to no
avail.

Can anyone help?

Regards,

Colleen

If you mean Konsole, click on Settings -> Configure Profiles -> Edit
Profile -> Tabs and set them both to %w

It works for me.

It's a setting in the Konsole profile. Settings>Configure Profiles>Edit
Profile>Tabs.

Thanks.  This works.  Didn't try clicking on "Profile" - was "chicken-shit"
thinking I would screw something up if I went into that.
