Konsole exits on app close or crash

Fri Jul 07, 2017 1:09 pm
Hello.
For starting my application with some parameters I created launcher in Start menu with option to run it in konsole, so I could see the console output. But when app crashes or I close it by accident, Konsole closes to. I tried to add a tab in konsole to prevent closing, but tab in which app was running still clears and I can't read the output.

Is it possible to not close konsole on app close and not clean the apps output?

Konsole has a --noclose option you can use that will tell it to stay open after the program finishes/crashes/whatever. Other terminal emulators should offer a similar option (usually either --noclose, --hold or both).

You can set this up using the properties dialog for the application shortcut: in the Application tab under Advanced Options there's an option to Run in terminal and underneath that is one for Do not close when command exits.
