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.[dubious – discuss] 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.[discuss]

KDE applications, include Dolphin, Kate,[7] KDevelop, Kile, Konversation, Konqueror, and Krusader use Konsole to provide embedded terminal functionality via Kpart.

As of July 2014, Yakuake, Dolphin, Kate, KDE Telepathy, and Konsole, among others,[which?] are in the process of being ported to KDE Frameworks 5.[8]
