Im looking for ways to increase my use of the terminal and so I want to have one around all the time without having to switch tabs. I have seen tiling window managers but I kinda don’t want to lose like windows snapping and such. Is there any way to attack a window to the taskbar in kde so that other programs won’t overlap it? I basically would like to have like 3 lines of a terminal across the bottom just above the start bar.

    On windows, macos and linux I usually keep a workspace with a full sized terminal running tmux. The same workspace switching hotkeys native to the os or wm get me there.

      you know maybe that is what I should just do. I remember way back when being blown away by virtual desktops but never really ended up using it. It would be a good use case.

        Yeah, the good thing about that solution is you’re not tied to a specific terminal program. Enjoy kterm, use that. Like alacritty, no problem. Have some weird need for xterm? Go for it.
