konsole: [e]xecute a specific command and don't close the window after it exits.
$ konsole --noclose -e "${command}"
try on your machine

This command is used to open a new terminal window, execute a specified command, and prevent the terminal window from closing after the command has been executed.

Let's break down the components of this command:

  • konsole: It specifies the terminal emulator to use, in this case, "konsole" which is the default terminal emulator for KDE Plasma desktop environment.
  • --noclose: This option prevents the terminal window from closing after the executed command finishes. By default, the terminal window would usually close automatically once the command is completed.
  • -e "${command}": This part specifies the command to be executed within the newly opened terminal window. The ${command} is a placeholder for the actual command you want to run. You would replace ${command} with the desired command or command string. The -e flag is used to indicate that a command is being passed for execution.

Overall, this command opens a new konsole window, runs a specified command within the window, and keeps the window open after the command finishes its execution.
