[Konsole-devel] [Bug 168606] New: Konsole defaults to Bash as shell

[Robert Knight]

No it does not.  The profile defaults to $SHELL, which is expanded for
display in the profile editor.  If no command is specified then it
also defaults to $SHELL, in case $SHELL is not a valid path in which
case it will fall back to /bin/sh.

Regards,
Robert.

> Leaving the 'command' option empty will default to the shell specified in /etc/passwd. This is not intuitive, though. At the least, this field should default to empty, though a 'use standard user shell' click-option might be better for non-tech-savvy users.
