Bug ID: 506361
Summary: --new-tab doesn't work if it's after -e
Classification: Applications
Product: konsole
Version First 25.04.2
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: konsole-devel at kde.org
Reporter: vse.stopchanskyi at gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I have «Run all Konsole windows in a single process» enabled and trying to
execute something with «konsole -e <command> --new-tab» and it just opens a new
Konsole window, but if I do «konsole --new-tab -e <command>» it opens a new tab
in existing window as it should. At first I thought it didn't work at all,
because I'm used to adding flags at the end and konsole --help doesn't mention
that «--new-tab» should be at the begging.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Do konsole -e sleep 20 --new-tab
2. Do konsole --new-tab -e sleep 20
OBSERVED RESULT
konsole --new-tab -e sleep 20 opens a new window and instantly closes it. But
if the command is not valid it falls back to shell and deosn't close the window
konsole -e sleep 20 --new-tab opens a new tab as it should
EXPECTED RESULT
--new-tab should work no matter the placement in the arguments
