can I use "Make" from within KDE Shell Konsole

[Peter Ryan]

It is safe to install ports from
within KDE ?

At present I shut down KDE, go to
the command line and start a Make.

If I need to get a file manually 
from somewhere, I go back into KDE
to get it.

I would rather do it all from 
within KDE if possible.  The Shell
Konsole appears to be the same as
the command line thing I have
been using.

Thanks
Peter
