I don't understand your point. What do you want me to change? > The feature list in English doesn't match the one in German.

Not sure I understand. The cmake file includes find_package(KF5 REQUIRED COMPONENTS for NetworkManagerQt and BluezQt > Uses bash for things that are POSIX shell scripts. What do you mean ? There is exactly one shellscript which is not build related: start_liquidshell it contains #!/bin/bash if you're referring to this. I did this since I remember having read that /bin/sh is not the correct way. > Those (two items) above are symptoms of "liquidshell is a shell for Martin > Koller and people with exactly his computer setup and workflow". "my workflow" - of course. "exactly his computer" - not so. E.g. it seems Arch Linux provides liquidshell: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/liquidshell-git/ Also KaOS have included liquidshell https://linuxscoop.com/video/whats-new-kaos-2018-01 I'm using openSuse. > Since the KDE community has traditionally produced general, flexible > software, it's weird to > have a restricted, limited, non-flexible product as well. If you find liquidshell too limited and unflexible for you, don't use it. liquidshell's intent is exactly being this: simple and not over complex (aka general, flexible) -- Best regards/Schöne Grüße Martin A: Because it breaks the logical sequence of discussion Q: Why is top posting bad?
