Yakuake, a drop-down terminal emulator based on KDE Konsole technology that smoothly rolls down, has a tabbed interface, configurable dimensions, and sophisticated DCOP / D-Bus interface, is now at version 2.9.9.

The most notable changes in Yakuake 2.9.9 are the introduction of silence & activity monitoring options for terminals and the addition of Get Hot New Stuff support, which makes it easier to download new skins.

Highlights of Yakuake 2.9.9;

• A standard KDE "Configure Notifications..." item has been added to the menu; • Users can now monitor sessions (or individual terminals within them) for activity or silence; • The application now automatically retracts after the last open tab closes; • Some default keyboard shortcuts have been changed; • The window geometry and placement calculation in multi-screen setups have been fixed.

A complete list of changes can be found in the official announcement.
