Konsole is a free and open-source terminal emulator which is part of KDE Applications and ships with the KDE desktop environment. Konsole was originally written by Lars Doelle.[2] It ls licensed under the GPL v2 or later[3][4][5] and the GNU Free Documentation License.[6] Konsole includes many projects which may themselves have their own licences. However, Konsole itself is protected under the GPL v2[3][4][5] or later, and GNU Free Documentation License.[6] This is due to the smaller projects within Konsole having compatible licenses.
KDE applications, including Dolphin, Kate,[7] KDevelop, Kile, Konversation, Konqueror, and Krusader, use Konsole to provide embedded terminal functionality via Kpart.
