Hello Mike,
Each Konsole session uses a pts, which is a pseudo terminal. Command
line programs need this to communicate. On some other Unixes they are
called pty0, pty1, etc. On Linux there is a directory in /dev called
pts, and each new session creates a new (temporary) entry in that
directory starting with 0. So the first session is connected to
/dev/pts/0, the second session is connected to /dev/pts/1, etc.
