Comment 1 Dominik Haumann 2014-04-07 08:54:13 UTC 
@Michal: May it be, that we should cache the end line? i.e.:

 void KateView::killLine( )
 {
  if (m_selection.isEmpty()) {
    m_doc->removeLine(cursorPosition().line());
  } else {
    m_doc->editStart();
-    for (int line = m_selection.end().line(); line >= m_selection.start().line(); line--) {
+    const int startLine = m_selection.start().line();
+    for (int line = m_selection.range.end().line(); line >= startLine; line--) {
      m_doc->removeLine(line);
    }
    m_doc->editEnd();
  }
}
