Konsole : it fits well with my KDE desktop, is very easy to configure,
has tabs when I need them, has a nice font (Fixed GNU 11/13);
KDE starts  2  for me at reboot,  1  for user &  1  for root,
& I don't find it slow to start another on my fairly fast machine; also,
it now handles Unicode properly, so I don't need Mlterm for Esperanto/Greek.

Unfavorite is Xterm, which has ugly colors & is difficult to configure
(ok maybe I've never found out how to do those things easily).

I don't like transparency & other forms of intrusive eye-candy,
just simple & pleasing shapes, fonts & colors I can go on looking at.
