I fumbled with all this documentation but just couldn't get konsole to do what I wanted and so I dissed it and opted for an xterm, which I could also so easily create a shortcut for on the Desktop. KDE is cool but not their konsole. Noone want's to reconfigure their shells and other stuff every time they install some new app, yes. Thank you so much for the links.
