+<title>Introduction to &konsole;</title>

+<sect1 id="terminal">
+<title>What is a terminal?</title>
+<para>&UNIX; operating systems were
+originally designed as text-only systems, controlled by keyboard
+commands -- what is known as a command-line interface
+(<acronym>CLI</acronym>). The &X-Window; and &kde; and other projects
+have since added the graphical interface you are now using. However,
+the underlying <acronym>CLI</acronym> system is still there, and is
+frequently the easiest, fastest and most powerful way to perform many
+tasks.</para>
+<para>&konsole; is what is known as an X terminal
+emulator, often referred to as a terminal or a shell. It gives you the
+equivalent of an old-fashioned text screen on your desktop, but one
+which can easily share the screen with your graphical
+applications. &Windows; users may be familiar with the 
+<application>MS-DOS Prompt</application> utility, which has the analogous 
+function of offering a <trademark>DOS</trademark> command-line under
+&Windows;. (Although the &UNIX; <acronym>CLI</acronym>s offer far more
+power and ease of use than does <acronym>DOS</acronym>!)</para>
+
+<para>Explaining the use of the &UNIX; <acronym>CLI</acronym> is
+beyond the scope of this document, as it would require a lengthy
+book. Fortunately, many such books are available in every language in
+any good bookstore or library. There are also tutorials available on
+the Internet. Enjoy &kde;, but don't be shy about learning to use the
+command-line! You will find that even learning just the basics will
+make your computer use much more efficient and enjoyable.</para>

+<title>What makes &konsole; special?</title>
+<para>&konsole;'s
+advanced features include simple configuration and the ability to use
+multiple terminal shells in a single window, making for a less
+cluttered desktop.</para>
+

+<para>After a decade, &konsole; is the first rewrite from the ground
+up. While <application>xterm</application> has definitely been hacked

+<title>Sessions</title>
+<para>If you often have to log into remote machines, or always run a similar set of
+terminal applications, you can use &konsole;'s <quote>Session</quote> feature
+along with &kde;'s session management to automate a lot of this for you.
+Let's take the following example:
+You often have open an <application>ssh</application> session to the machine
+<replaceable>administration</replaceable> ready for generic administration
+tasks.
+You may have noticed the <guibutton>New Session</guibutton> button on &konsole;'s tab
+bar contains a menu if you click and hold on it, and you can choose new session
+types here. We are going to add new entries to this menu.
+
+<orderedlist>
+<listitem><para>Click on the menu entry <menuchoice><guimenu>Settings</guimenu><guimenuitem>Configure &konsole;...</guimenuitem>
+</menuchoice></para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>Choose the <guilabel>Session</guilabel> tab.</para>
+</listitem> 
+
+<listitem><para>Fill in the first entry with a name.  This is the
+name that will show in the menu, and will be the default label instead
+of <guilabel>Shell</guilabel> when you start a session of this type.
+</para></listitem>
+
+<listitem><para>Enter a command just as you normally would if you opened a new
+shell and were going to issue that command.  For our first example above, you
+might type <userinput><command>ssh</command> <replaceable>administration</replaceable></userinput>.</para></listitem>
+
+<listitem><para>On the lower part of the panel, configure this
+session's appearance.  You can have a different font, colour scheme,
+and $<envar>TERM</envar> type for each session.</para></listitem>
+
+<listitem><para>Press the <guibutton>Save
+Session...</guibutton> button.  A dialog will ask you to confirm the filename.
+</para></listitem>
+
+<listitem><para>Press <guibutton>OK</guibutton>.</para></listitem>
+
+</orderedlist>
+</para>
+<para>You should now be able to press and hold the <guibutton>New Session</guibutton> button
+on the tab bar, and select your new session type from the list.  A new shell
+session will open within the &konsole; window, with the result of your executed
+command.  In our example, you will be at an <application>ssh</application>
+passphrase prompt, and when you provide your passphrase, you will be logged
+into the remote machine.
+<footnote id="use-ssh-agent"><para>You can avoid this step also, by using
+ssh-agent, but that is a topic for another goodie.</para></footnote>
+Perhaps you want to remotely tail your <acronym>http</acronym> error logs on a
+webserver, you could use a commandline something like
+<userinput><command>ssh</command> <option>-f</option>
+<replaceable>webserver</replaceable> <command>tail</command>
+<option>-f</option>
+<filename><replaceable>/var/log/httpd-error.log</replaceable></filename></userinput>.</para>
+
+<para>You can use this to execute local commands as well.  Try creating a
+session where the command is <userinput><command>tail</command> <option>-f</option> <filename><replaceable>/var/log/messages</replaceable></filename></userinput>. <!--or 'screen
+<someone who uses screen please supply some sensible command switches here, say -->
+<!--to attach to an irc session>'. -->  In this case, exiting the
+running application will close the shell session as well.</para>
+
+<para>One really nice use of this feature is if you find you always have the
+same set of open sessions, &kde; can open them all for you automatically
+when you start a new &kde; session.  Simply have them open as you like
+when you exit &kde;, and they will be saved with your &kde; session, and
+restored just like any other application when you restart &kde;.</para>
+
+<note><para>You can assign 
+<link linkend="settings-menu">shortcuts</link> 
+to any session.</para></note>

+
+<para>Holding the &LMB; down and

+within &konsole; or another application. The selected text can also be

+you may need to hold the &Ctrl; key while dragging.</para>
+
+<para>Normally, new-line characters are inserted at the end of each
+line selected.  This is best for cut and paste of source code, or the output
+of a particular command.  For ordinary text, the line breaks are often
