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?

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. Nov 27, 2010 at 11:30
  • I logged in just to give you +1. No need for mouse click any more

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"

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.
