it's called sarcasm. You may find it not funny but that is how I meant it.

You also proved my point. Xterm is part of XOrg. some people argue that xterm is 
part of xinit only, but then xinit is a core part of XOrg anyway

so, let's not delete konsole from KDE, and lets get our base XOrg install 
provide xterm too. (yeah, this is seriously not a joke)
