    Konsave - Save/Export Plasma Settings

    https://openbase.com/python/Konsave

    The install commands on there didn't quite work. For me on Kubuntu 20.04 I used the following:

    Code:
    pip3 install pyyaml
    Code:
    pip3 install Konsave
    I save my profile and then exported to a single file with the .knsv extension. This was just 50mb in size. I then created a brand new user profile and switched to it. I had a problem installing on the second profile, it was giving me an error message about a path not being set. So after a search I added the following to the end of /home/bings/.bashrc

    Code:
    export PATH="$PATH:/home/bings/.local/bin"
    After re-logging in, konsave installed fine and I was able to import the file. All the colour appearance and position of panels and widgets all in the right place and with their settings preserved. The wallpaper didn't copy and I was left with the default one. I am not sure about keyboard shortcuts as I use the default ones anyway. Overall, could save some time, especially if you have a lot of plasma customisation.

    This doesnt work for me on Kubuntu 23.04.... The konsave github isnt much help either

    "python3 -m pip install konsave" is supposed to work
