There is a very old bug (#56629) reporting the same behavior, but I guess I should open a new one.... I see the same problem in KWrite (and Kate of course), but not in KEdit. 405314 1 davorin.ucakar 2006-01-11 18:07:47 +0000 That bug was already present in some old versions of KatePart (KDE 2.x), but was resolved in recent ones (KDE 3.2, 3.3, 3.4). Now, it's appeared again in KDE 3.5. However, it can be circumvented by setting Shift+Backspace shortcut.
