Hi,

I'm quite amazed by Krusader, really like the tool. However I would love to be able to turn on a synchronization of the dirs between the terminal and the panels. It improves the workflow with the terminal so much.

I've seen dolphin being able to switch dirs from the panel in the terminal and vice versa, cd from the terminal switches the directory in the panels.

Is it possible to turn that on in Krusader?

And if not, is there a possibility to look up that functionality from the dolphin browser and patch something similar in Krusader?

Greetings,
DeltaOfPie

Hi DeltaOfPie,

it is only possible to change dirs from the panel to the terminal.
Settings->Configure Krusader->General->Terminal: "Embedded Terminal sends ChDir"

A patch (including an additional config option) for the other direction is welcome.
Source of Krusader is
https://invent.kde.org/utilities/krusader
for Dolphin
https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin

The embedded terminal in Krusader is from the KDE framework libraries. You may wanna start
with checking out

Cheers,
Alex
