Using Linux Ubuntu 10.04 with RKward. On occasion, after I run code that has a bug in it as a script file, I notice that text that I type into the console shows up backward.  For example, I just ran a script file with a bug. I go to the console and type in some commands but the commands show up on the screen backwards.  If I type in RKward bug,  it shows up as :

&gt; gub drawKR

The strange part is if I go back up to the script window to correct the code, the typing/text comes out normal. The problem is only in console

I can usually close RKward and restart it and that clears the bug. Although it seems like the problem is happening more and more. It also seems to be related to how long the computer has been on. In other words to memory although I'm not positive about that.

Hi\!

It's a known \(and annoying\!\) bug in the KDE text editor component: https://bugs.kde.org/show\_bug.cgi?id=246162 . Not much we can do about it in RKWard, it needs to be fixed in KDE libs.

To get out of this situation, without restarting RKWard:
1\) If this happens in a script editor: Use File-&gt;Reload \(don't forget to save first, if needed\).
2\) If this happens in the R Console: Use "Clear" from the context menu.

This bug appears to have been fixed in KDE 4.6.
