Using "konsole" in Cygwin

Using "konsole" in Cygwin

[JOHNER Jean 066030]

Hello,
I often connect to a KDE Linux server so that I am familiar with
"konsole".
I tried the "konsole" command on Cygwin, which is unknown.
Is there a way to use KDE console on Cygwin.

Sorry if my questions look too much elementary. I am new to Cygwin. Do
not hesitate to redirect me towards FAQs or user guides.

Best regards.

Jean Johner

Right.  There are external ports of these but nothing in the distribution
right now.  As for other terminals with things like tabs, you can check
out Poderosa and/or Console2.

that's my understanding - there was just this week a thread on this
list which stated that.

which are very nice tools. And also Mintty which is great.
But "console" has also interesting features (multiple shells in the same
window in different tabs for example).

From your answer, I conclude that "konsole" is not available in Cygwin.
I guess the answer is the same for GNOME-termimal.
Do you confirm?

Best regards.
