Description Richard Hartmann 2004-07-03 11:59:30 UTC
Version:           Unbekannt (using KDE 3.2.0, Gentoo)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.2 20031218 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.2-r5, propolice-3.3-7)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.25-gentoo-r4

Can be easily reproduced:

- set history to "unimited in kconsole
- generate lots of data in the history, i.e. compile a new kernel
- try to save the history in a file

When doing so kconsole crashes 9 of 10 times. I 
think it has to do with the amount of data it
has to save.

There are no special plugins loaded, besides macromedia
flash which has nothing to do with kconsole.

Expected:
- should not crash

Probably runs out of memory... implementation isn't very scalable it seems.

CVS commit by waba: 

* Preserve trailing spaces when selecting
* Make "Save History As" more efficient. (BR84403)
