I want to instanciate a Konsole-Window with several Sub-konsoles.

That would be a bit easier if i could start sub-konsoles with a name

Currently i do the following:
konsole --ls -T "xyz"
In my.profil i have a "name=`dcop ... sessionName`" and then a "case" which executes the needed commands based on that name.

When i want several sub-windows i have to do the following:
use a "magic" sessionName.
in the .profile is a loop that starts as many "newSession"s as needed.
In the .profile of the sub-konsoles i must use a "if sessionName=Shell" and "if dcop ... session-1 sessionName=magic" to see if this sub-konsole is actually a special-one and then "renameSession" it to the name i would have liked to use with newSession and then "exec /bin/bash --login" to start over the .profile which then executes the correct commands based on the updated sessionName.

Fortunaly i currently only have >= 3 sub-window-konsoles with sessions 2 .. x doing the same.
Otherwise i would also have to use for the "sessionCount" to set the correct sub-konsole-names.

Finally when the "magic" Session is done it "dcop ... renameSession" itself to it's final name and "exec /bin/bash --login" to finalize it.
