This is probably a fairly rudimentary problem, but I am new to scripting. I’m trying to write a script that I can just click and it will do two things:
Here’s what I have so far:
#! /bin/bash
sftp user@sftp_server
where the user info and server info for the source I want is actually typed in already. What I don’t know is how I make it open konsole and then run that command. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Dan

Just make your script executable and double-click on it. It may or may
not open ‘konsole’ vs. ‘xterm’ or something but I doubt you really care
about that particular detail, and if you do that may be manageable as
well but it’s usually more work than it is worth.
Good luck.

konsole -e sftp user@sftp_server
Thanks, the second script did it. The problem I had is that when I just clicked on it without specifying Konsole in the command, it opened in an openSSH password prompt instead, which then dead-ended (nothing happened after I entered a password). I didn’t realize that was going on until now…
