Bug ID: 465580
Summary: raise scroll back limit substantially
Classification: Applications
Product: konsole
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: history
Assignee: konsole-de...@kde.org
Reporter: sit...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
A scroll back limit of 1000 lines is way too low for a default. Everyone I've
whined to over the years agreed that the limit is too low and said to just set
it to unlimited or raise it substantially. Let's do this globally. There is no
practical reason I can think of why we'd have a limit this low. It only ever
takes minutes to find a command with output that doesn't even fit inside the
limit.
I propose we raise the limit to 1,000,000 and see how that goes.
An argument might even be made that unlimited is the way to go. It's kinda
unexpected that output "randomly" disappears.
It may also make sense to equip konsole with kuserfeedback to get a sense of
what configuration values get changed a lot.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. run pw-dump
OBSERVED RESULT
half the output is not there
EXPECTED RESULT
a reasonable amount of output fits in the history
