As far as I know, when you hit Ctrl+Alt+T, the Linux terminal pops up. However, it opens in the default home directory. I want to set up this shortcut to open in the directory I am currently in at my file manager. Is there any way to do that? I know that if I right-click anywhere on the directory it will give me the option to do that. But I want to do stuff using my keyboard.

After doing a web search, I found the How to Open the Terminal to a Specific Directory in Linux post. But here, the shortcut is mapped to open in another specific directory. So, in turn, it will require me to change the .bashrc file everytime I want to open terminal in a specific directory.

My Desktop environment is KDE and I use Dolphin file manager. My terminal emulator is Konsole.

Is there any way to achieve what I want? Let me know. Thanks in advance.
