Huh. I actually used to use Konsole too though more through Yakuake than 
on its own.

I ended up switching to rxvt-unicode (featureful but a bit of a hassle 
to learn how to configure) with the provided kuake Perl script and GNU 
screen for the tabs when I got fed up with how much heavier the KDE 4 
version was.

(Among other reasons, I try to keep my desktop as comfortable as 
possible on my old 2Ghz Celeron with 1GiB of RAM as a way to control 
bloat on my Athlon II X2 270 with 16GiB.)

Now all I need to do is to find time to optimize my .zshrc. (Currently, 
urxvt appears as quickly as Leafpad but then waits a couple of seconds 
before displaying a prompt while it does things like populating its Tab 
completion cache. One reason why my .zshrc displays the fortune 
command's output as early as possible.)
