Not off-hand, I'm afraid, as I don't even have KDE installed. Check konsole's documentation to see if it takes similar args or Xresources. Failing that, I know that GNOME's terminal app has a properties dialog in which one can set these options and make them persistent. (Side note, or maybe rant: I do wish the GNOME and KDE apps paid attention to some of the more common X resource settings, like geometry. I'm all in favor of making Unix/X easier to use, but let's not throw out well-established and useful tricks in doing it.) Richard
