GNU/Linux: Open programm in Konsole / Term

Question

How can you run an application directly inside a Konsole (KDE) or Terminal (GNOME)?

I'm particularly interested in having a shortcut to Emacs:

emacs -nw

Being in KDE, that would open a Konsole and run Emacs (no-windows), and GNOME would run it inside a Terminal. I guess Konsole should have a parameter in which you can ask it to run, and open a certain program/script. Does anybody know how to do this?

Thanks!

man gnome-terminal tells me:

   -e, --command=STRING
             Execute the argument to this option inside the terminal.

   -x, --execute
             Execute the remainder of the command line inside  the  termi‐
             nal.
