The menu for KDE3's Konsole is unfortunately not based that part of KDE's GUI framework which allows modification (KDE4's Konsole will). Therefore the number of options are: - assign a keyboard shortcut to the "Save History" action so you don't need the menu fo saving the history - disable the "Clear History" actions through a KDE action restriction. For this you either need to put this into your konsolerc (usually under .kde/share/config) [KDE Action Restrictions] action/clear_history=false action/clear_all_histories=false or execute the following commands % kwriteconfig --file konsolerc --group "KDE Action Restrictions" --key "action/clear_history" false % kwriteconfig --file konsolerc --group "KDE Action Restrictions" --key "action/clear_all_histories" false which does the editing for you. My guess is that the developer thought that the menu separator between the two items was enough to keep them save. If you have an idea how this could be improved, e.g. a specific different ordering of items, you could add a bug entry on bugs.kde.org to let the maintainer know about it.
