Bug ID: 474448<br>
Summary: Wish: Allow cursor placement by mouse click in the<br>
current command<br>
Classification: Applications<br>
Product: konsole<br>
Version: unspecified<br>
Platform: Debian stable<br>
OS: Linux<br>
Status: REPORTED<br>
Severity: wishlist<br>
Priority: NOR<br>
Component: general<br>
Assignee: <a href="mailto:konsole-devel@kde.org" target="_blank">konsole-devel@kde.org</a><br>
Reporter: <a href="mailto:oliver.sander@tu-dresden.de" target="_blank">oliver.sander@tu-dresden.de</a><br>
Target Milestone: ---<br>
<br>
I sometimes find myself working with very long command lines in konsole. One<br>
example are compiler invocations which can easily get 700 letters long. In my<br>
workflow, I copy them from the clipboard into Konsole and then I need to edit<br>
them.<br>
<br>
The problem is that it is very tedious to move around in such long lines. I<br>
can jump to the beginning and to the end of the line with the Pos1 and End<br>
keys. To move around I can go left and right with the arrow-left and<br>
arrow-right keys, and that's apparently it. Unfortunately, moving around in<br>
such a long line with the two arrow keys only can take a long time.<br>
<br>
My wish is that when I click onto the current command line the Konsole cursor<br>
moves to the position of the mouse cursor, just as it does in Kate or<br>
LibreOffice.<br>
