💡 Quick Handy Tip
In KDE Konsole, you can adjust the number of Scrollback lines dynamically. To achieve that, first right-click on an empty place and select “Adjust Scrollback…”.
Now, enter a value for the desired number of Scrollback lines by choosing the “Fixed size:” option and click on “OK”.
Remember, this is temporary and only affects the current session. Furthermore, having a huge number of Scrollback lines might cause performance issues, since all of this is stored in the RAM.
