I think I understand what you want to do, but please correct me if my assumptions are wrong.

It sounds like you want to use the Kate editor to compile source code, but it is failing because you don't have a Terminal defined.

Is that correct?

I think the problem is that you don't have the Konsole application installed. Konsole is the default KDE Terminal application and as Kate is a KDE application, it probably is expecting Konsole to be installed for this functionality to work.

You can install konsole by opening a terminal (Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal) and typing the following:

sudo apt-get install konsole

After you have installed Konsole try using Kate to compile.

I hope this helps.

Can you help with this problem?
