Summary

A common power user complaint about Plasma is the lack of a Ctrl+Alt+T keyboard shortcut to open Konsole. It turns out that one has existed for quite some time in the form of an off-by-default example for instructional purposes.

Test Plan

Log into a new user account or delete ~/.config/khotkeysrc and then hit Ctrl+Alt+T on the keyboard. Konsole opens!

+1 from me as well. I knew this shortcut from, ahem, other desktops. I thought it was something KDE simply didn't do. Nice fix.

Whilst I'm not opposed to enabling this (moved outside Examples) you can't refer to this as a "syntax error", it's a bit misleading

@davidedmundson

Makes sense, I can move this elsewhere. And you're right, there's no syntax error; I've since figured out how to make this work as is just by flipping it to Enabled (you need to first enable the parent "Examples" folder too).

Abandoning this patch in favor of a more correct way to accomplish the goal: D13708: Add a global shortcut (Ctrl+Alt+T) to launch Konsole
