Description Daniel Kinzler 2008-07-03 15:37:48 UTC

Version:           1.0.1 (using KDE 3.5.9)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

Text like %B is interpreted as special control code in messages I write. I don't need that feature, and it frequently breaks URLs i want to send, namely those containing encoded special characters. 

I would like to have the option to disable these control codes completely, or change the prefix that triggers them (to "^" or whatever). But I still want to see colors/blod/italics in incomming messages.

Disabling/enabling codes could be done per messagte with special commands like /%+ and /%- or something... but I don't really need that. A plain option in the config would be enough, and required even if per-message switches were implemented, to set the default.

Settings -> Configure Konversation -> Behavior -> Chat Window -> [x] Disable variable expansion.

Closing.

oops, sorry, must be blind. But in my defense, no one on #kde told me about it :)

Thanks for this nice piece of software

Someone in #konversation might have, though ;-).
