For example on my computer I generally have: on desktop 1 => konqueror running in file manager profile on desktop 2 => kmail+konqueror running in webbroser profile The instance of konqueror that is on desktop as special name in the menu bar (konqueror-desktop2 for example). It may be possibly used by a script to know in which instance of kde the tab should be opened. Another solution would be to look at first instance found on the current desktop (or another one?)... There are numerous possibility. Only the coding way is missing to me. How can this be done in KDE? Using some window manager program of KDE?? Where is the documentation of such a program that could detect window property and send things to the instance of the window.... ? > Well, I have configured my desktop in such way that > I have Kmail running on Desktop 1 in full-screen, and I have Desktop 2 > dedicated for Konqueror and other apps.

Is there any way to change this > behavior? I hope so!! This is strange that it is not the default way it work! At least it is like that with kmail and firefox on mandriva. It uses the -remote option of mozilla-firefox if I'm not wrong when I look what konqueror can do : konqueror --help Usage : konqueror [options-Qt] [options-KDE] [options-KDE-tempfile] [options] [URL] well not so much interesting? Maybe the Qt options?? I see that the doc of konqueror is in docbook format! /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/konqueror/commands.docbook ... How can I read that?? It may contain usefull informations? ___________________________________________________ . Account management: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde. Archives: http://lists.kde.org/.
