Hey, you can center any app on the desktop, using kwin (right click on the window frame, Advanced ...)

...and there you can also find an option to make window-decorations disappear.

Well, right click on window deco of konsole (you can do it for any app).

Go to Advanced --> Special Application Settings...;

then select Geometry;

then check "Placement" and select "Force" and "Centered"

Your konsole will be placed on the desktop center.

Sorry, I meant the option to make the window-decorations disappear.

Thanks.

instead of Geometry, select Preferences --> "No border"

For konsole there's also "--noframe" option, but it doesn't work with my style.

Slackware 12 guide
centershell needs eterm libast and imlib2
I have install imlib already. So I just need to download 2 more package from linuxpackages and install them (DO NOT use pkg from Eterm official website. It is old)

sudo installpkg libast-0.7-i486-1ms.tgz
sudo installpkg eterm-0.9.4-i486-1gh.tgz

make a link to /bin
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/Eterm /bin/Eterm

Make sure you can start Eterm in command line.

run ./centershell.sh or put it to ~/.kde/Autostart

If you are not using 1024X768 screen change eterm position in centershell.sh
Enjoy it
