Getting kstart to terminate
I'm running Kubuntu 14.10. I want to open several programs (firefox, kmail, konsole) in different desktops, and I understand that kstart is the tool to use. But when I specify a file with three kstart commands as the startup file (from System Settings), my system simply hangs.
To understand what's going on, I've been trying something simpler: issuing the single command kstart --desktop 1 firefox from a konsole window. It works, but it does not terminate -- which means that following commands aren't executed. I think that's what accounts for the hangup.
So I'm asking a simpler question: is there a way to issue a kstart command from konsole that will give me a new command prompt without any further action? Most ordinary commands like ls behave just that way, of course.
