For example, if you are inside a directory, right-click and select the "Open Folder With" option. From the list, select an application.

If Kate is selected, that location is opened in the editor.Other than that, if you enable the "Underline Files" option in Configure Konsole →Profiles → Edit Profile → Mouse → Miscellaneous, you can even right-click and open files in GUI tools right from the terminal.🎋 Fun in the FOSSverseCan you get all the answers to this Linux distro logo quiz?Guess the Distro from its LogoThere is a logo and four distro names.
