Can I get the desktop name in a Konsole shell

I'd like to be able to assign Konsole windows to a desktop and retrieve which desktop it's on.

I intend to use this function to put the name of the desk top in the title bar of the Konsole Window.

Thanks,
Norm

	Source code
1	dcop kwin KWinInterface currentDesktop

This returns the number of the currently active desktop

Thanks...

Is there then a way to get the actual assigned desktop name?

Hmm, I am afraid I don't know any.

Actually the naming is very likely only some property of the pager.

Thanks anyway for the info about being able to find the desktop Index.

I'll keep searching for any way to get the desktop name out.

Cheers,
Norm
