Severity:          normal

Comment 1 Aaron J. Seigo 2003-07-01 00:33:51 UTC 
this is due to limitations in (the now deprecated) QMultiLineEdit. this likely won't be 
fixed/fixable until KDE4 (due to binary compatibility issues) when keditcl either is 
removed completely or ported to use the new and improved QTextEdit.
Comment 2 Aaron J. Seigo 2003-07-01 01:42:00 UTC 
ok, i lied horribly and completely. this is now fixed in CVS. thanks to SadEagle for 
pointing out the mysteries of QMultiLineEdit's deprecated API =))
