Forum > FV/Textmode IDE

No mouse in Konsole

(1/1)

Jay:
I'm using fp 3.0 in linux-32 with a kde based distro. The mouse works ok in xterm but not in the default konsole. Anyone know how to configure konsole so that the mouse works with the ide? I appreciate that this may not be an fp related issue because I can't see why the mouse should work in Xterm but not konsole, but just thought I'd ask. Thanks.

Thaddy:
I have seen that konsole issue too. That's because konsole bypasses xterm. It should not do that. FP relies on X, not even on GTK+
I suggest you configure FP to start in xterm.

Jay:
Thaddy, I tried starting konsole with


--- Code: Pascal  [+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 = document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x = document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i < x.length; i++) { x[i].style.maxHeight='none'; x[i].style.height = Math.min(x[i].clientHeight+15,306)+'px'; x[i].style.resize = "vertical";}};} ---konsole -tn xterm
I can now use the mouse to select menus and move around the window, but I can't select text. Weird.

I would prefer to use konsole because it has more features than plain xterm, but it's a pain having to use the keyboard to select text, so I guess I can learn to live with xterm.

It would be great if the ide had vim bindings!  :D
