KDE Konsole padding

Konsole, KDE’s terminal emulator, supports changing the padding space in its terminal window.

Konsole with extra padding

This property can be changed from the graphical interface of Konsole since v19.04. It is called Margins and it can be found in:

Settings > Edit Current Profile > Appearance (left toolbox) > Miscellaneous (tab) > Margins

Alternatively, the padding of the terminal window can also be set in your profile configuration file. Which also works in older versions of Konsole without the toggle in the GUI. Change the default padding by setting the TerminalMargin parameter to the desired value of pixels in the General section of your profile file in ~/.local/share/konsole/
