# On-Desktop-Terminal

# This script calls the "kstart" application to start a terminal
# which  is borderless and transparent at a choosen postition
# of your desktop. This terminal has no entry in the taskbar 
# and runs like a daemon.

# The following lines are the configuration lines.
# You should uncomment the term you want to use.
# For default, the Eterm is uncommended. 

#Eterm command:

kstart --alldesktops --keepbelow --skippager --skiptaskbar Eterm --geometry 120x35+30+30 --trans=true --borderless --scrollbar=false --buttonbar=false -f white --cmod 250 -c white & 

#aterm command: 
#(this is not working on every version of aterm![e.g. the suse rpm...])

# kstart --alldesktops --keepbelow --skippager --skiptaskbar aterm -tr -ls -fg white -bl -sh 60 -sl 1000 -geometry 90x30+315+290 -fade 100 -sl 2000 -sb-sr -trsb

# You want to start the On-Desk-Script with KDE?
# No problem! Type the following to a terminal:
#
# cp odt_script.sh /home/USER/.kdeX.X/Autostart/
#
# The X.X behind kde means the KDE-version(!); 
# 
# That's all!
# I hope you enjoy!
