Right click to open a terminal in Kubuntu?

Question

On work, I am using fedora, where a right click on desktop opens a menu, which allows opening a terminal.

Home, I have kubuntu installed. Is it possible to have the same behavior?

Mouse Actions

Right click the KDE plasma desktop > Desktop settings > Mouse Actions

Application launcher has all applications.

Description:

This is a "containment action" (mouse action) plugin for the KDE Plasma Desktop (KDE SC 4.4 or newer).

With this plugin, you can configure a mouse button click to invoke a menu with your favorite applications.

Instead of listing all applications, it only lists the Kickoff favorite applications.

nautilus-open-terminal will drag all the gnome + nautilus dependencies and will mess Kubuntu.

In Kubuntu if I recall, you just right click the folder you want terminal access and then choose "Open in terminal"

Dolphin (the default KDE file manager) already include this option.

Right click in the folder and choose Action > Open Terminal Here

The shortcut for this operation is Shift + F4

For that, you need to open the dolphin :) Clicking on the desktop is easier. – BЈовић Nov 27 '10 at 11:30
