Command Line / Terminal Emulator
This part of the GUI can have four modes: Command Line, Terminal Emulator, show both and show none. You can choose your mode of operation either on start-up with the Konfigurator Startup page, or for the current session with the Settings menu .
The traditional command line mode offers a single line of input to enter commands, it also features three buttons:
(down arrow) to quick open previous used commands
(green plus button) to add easy Useraction placeholders
(console icon) button with the next options:
Start and Forget
Display Separated Standard and Error Output
Display Mixed Standard and Error Output
Start in New Terminal
Send to Embedded Terminal Emulator
When you start typing your commands,
the command line auto-completion feature will make its offers
according to what you choose in the
KDE Control Center. If you want to change the way
auto-complete behaves in the current Krusader
session,
right click on the command line and change it.
To the left of the input line you can find the local path that
the active panel is currently pointing to. This path is where
your command will be executed. Typing
cd
in the command line will also cause the active
panel to point to this directory.

The terminal emulator mode is in fact a small console and
acts like one. You can change the active directory in the
terminal by using the
cd
command. The terminal emulator will follow the
active panel directory. When you drag a file from the
"List Panel", you will get to choose
between: "Paste",
cd,
mv and
ln. If you drag multiple files, then
cd will not be available. A full-screen
terminal emulator can be used when
configured or
Ctrl+F toggles between normal and full
screen mode. If the command line is hidden, press
Ctrl+up to focus the terminal emulator.
Ctrl+down brings you back down.
Ctrl+Enter and
Ctrl+Shift+Enter paste the filename. You can
close the emulator by typing
exit
.
