Package: konsole
Version: 1.1.3 (using KDE 3.0.3 )
Severity: wishlist
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

i think it would be helpful if konsole could use the directory names (or full paths) that each konsole session had open as the name for that session. 

a lot of times i have 5 or more konsole sessions open in one konsole window.. sometimes i have sessions open that are telnetted into other computers.. or sometimes i know that one session is in a certain directory and i want to get into that directory without cd-ing to it. most of the time, i'm too lazy to name my sessions so i wind up clicking on two or three (or four or five) to find the session i want. 

if i could tell what directory each session was currently in at a glance, i could probably find the session i want on the first click.

i saw another cool feature in another console app a while ago.. (i think it was the gnomes consol app.. not sure) if i remember correctly, the console app had this cool feature that underlined URLs when i moved the cursor over them. I'm not sure if it actually opened the urls in a browser when i clicked on them, though. 

it would be exceedingly cool if konsole could recognize links and open them in konqueror (or mozilla) when they are clicked on. :-)
