Bug ID: 357965
Summary: [Regression] Konsole does not allow its hotkey to
show/hide Konsole (à la Yakuake, Kuake, Guake, Tilda,
the "terminal emulator" present in Quake and other
games, etc.)
Product: konsole
Version: 15.08.2
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: konsole-de...@kde.org
Reporter: ku...@gmx.com
[Regression] Konsole does not allow its hotkey to show/hide Konsole (à la
Yakuake, Kuake, Guake, Tilda, the "terminal emulator" present in Quake and
other games, etc.). That functionality is known as the "background mode" of
Konsole.
Previously, a real Konsole survey was done. It was answered by more than 8000
people and the background mode was developed because of this. Robert Knight, a
former main developer of Konsole, wrote in
