I see. I think it's fixed, now. > Is it possible to make the RConsole window inactive when there is a > cmd running.

Anyway, this is a low-priority feature/bug, you > might not want to concentrate on this ATM. Isn't it already? Can you enter anything while a command is running? Can't reproduce Edit: Except for pasting, as I've just found out. This should be fixed, now (also in the KDE3 version). > I am not quite sure of this.

Or should the question be just one time, for every command > that runs beyond the threshhold of k secs? Hm, I'll have to think about this. One side issue is, that if there is a "don't ask again" box, that usually means that the same decision is always assumed in the future. This could lead to the situation that *all* commands running longer than k secs are cancelled automatically, which does not sound like a good idea. Perhaps it should rather tell the user "If you want to cancel this command, go to the Pending Jobs window", with a "don't show again" box. More like a contextualized tip of the day. Regards Thomas
