What is the 'konsole shell config file'?
How did you change the font in there?
And what do you mean by 'konsole display the blinking cursor far away from input text'?
Sorry I don't understand what you said.
Offline
~/.kde4/share/apps/konsole/Shell.profile
[Appearance]
ColorScheme=Linux
Font=Purisa,8,-1,5,75,0,0,0,0,0
i changed monospace to purisa wich is my favourite font
the only problem is that the characters are mis-aligned
Offline
I have:
[Appearance]
ColorScheme=DarkPastels
Font=DejaVu Sans Mono,11,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
I don't see any problem here with this, but I don't know the Purisa font.

you need to install ttf-tlwg that contains purisa font and then you need to change the config file manually to see the difference
Offline
I will not do that, sorry.
But can you post a link to a screenshot showing the problem?

Post the result of:
echo "***$PS1***"
Offline
the output is
***[\u@\h \W]\$ ***Offline
I have not the explanation but is it better if you set:
PS1='[\u@\h \W]\$'
without the final space?
And are all the spaces this large with the Purisa font or only in the prompt?
Is this only a problem with spaces?
Offline
yes exactly
Offline
yes exactly
This is the answer to which one of the three questions of my last post?
Can you please take time to answer something more useful.
I am not sure you said that only spaces are too large and if that happens everywhere or only at the end of the prompt.
Offline
sorry for being late
that's happens everywhere
Offline
when i start typing on konsole the cursor is too far from the typed characters
Offline
im really sorry for my bad explanation
Offline
And that happens with the Purisa font only?
If that is the case, you will have no choice than to choose another font; but that seems very weird because the space inside the prompt has the right size.
I use 'DejaVu Sans Mono' without problem in konsole.
You may also test if everything works in xterm with the Purisa font, or another terminal program.
Please don't post three times for one answer.
And you should not spend such time on a somewhat secondary issue, if some other font works well or another terminal program.
Bye.
