Description Lars Feyerabend 2006-03-11 12:21:38 UTC
Version:           0.18 #3016 (using KDE 3.5.1, Kubuntu Package 4:3.5.1-0ubuntu0breezy1 )
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.12-10-686

I wished, Konversation had a mIRC-style feature to indicate what's new on a certain tab. In mIRC, you can have a line drawn in a channel/query tab that indicates which message was last on screen when changing tabs. So if you've got multiple channel tabs open, you immediately see what happened while you were talking in other tabs. Apparently, Konversation has no such feature. 

I hope I could explain that feature well enough for you to understand. :)

Obviously, Version and Platform information were not submitted by the bug submitting tool, so I'll provide them here:

Platform is Linux, Version is 0.18 #3016 (KDE 3.5.1) from Kubuntu breezy packages.

until a better solution comes up, you can try this:
insert > remember line (alt+r)
