Yes, i have read the docs. If i start it with
$konsole
it opens a new process/window and blocks the calling process. If I use
$konsole --separate
it opens a new process/window and blocks the calling process. So, what is the
difference?

>--new-tab will open a new window if konsole isn't set to run all windows in a single process (Settings -> >Configure Konsole -> General).

Cannot confirm. It only works if the current Konsole was started with
"--new-tab". Otherwise the flag is ignored and a new window is opened. The
setting "Run all Konsole windows in a single process" does not change anything.

My problem is this test case: A Konsole window was started with "konsole". Now
all three commands
"konsole"
"konsole --separate"
"konsole --new-tab"
show the very same behaviour.
