Sorry. I typed that quickly, so maybe I wasn't clear.

I just want to run a command in the project folder when the Konsole 
plugin launches.

I do have the Konsole plugin enabled. I've added two more (identical to 
the Konsole plugin other than Icon and Name).
I have the input (from the Add Plugin dialog) on both set to open in the 
project folder (so it runs 'cd /path/to/project' when opened)
I just need them to run an additional command after they change into the 
project folder.

I'll check Configure::Actions and Project::Event Actions in the morning, 
maybe that will have what I'm looking for. I figured there's already a 
way to do it, just wasn't sure how.

Thanks for your reply, and glad to read that you're doing better these days.
