Indeed, and konsole's support for transparency is better (at least easier to configure) than gnome-terminal's. In particular, I like to use a transparent background, but I like it to be muted nearly white, regardless of the color of the desktop background image. gnome-terminal allows the transparent background easily to be shaded, but only toward black. Perhaps there is a way to hack a config file with vi in order to get gnome-terminal to do what I want. But konsole let's me get the right behavior from the standard control interface. -- Thomas E.
