DING, DING, DING! We have a winner!

OK, I did have to restart KDE for it to take effect, which is what I was
expecting.

Thanks for the help.

Is there a way to get KDE to reprocess that dir without restarting?

I've now found a bunch of documentation on it, but I don't see anything
saying what shell is being used or what all you can do.

It's shell script being sourced, so anything you could normally do in a
script?

Which shell is used? Default shell for the user? Default shell for the
system? Generally hard-coded to bash?

If all of this is documented somewhere, please go ahead and just point me
there.

ciao,
