Description Stuart Herring 2002-04-10 00:10:07 UTC 
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           konsole
Version:           KDE 3.0.5 CVS/CVSup/Snapshot
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 2.95.4
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

In recent builds Konsole has started eating CTRL+B keypresses.

This makes using Vi in a konsole session rather annoying as you can CTRL+F down a file but using CTRL+B to go back up won't work.

On investigating it appears that it's because the Application Shortcut for Add Bookmark is assigned to CTRL+B.

Is there any real reason why Konsole would honour a shortcut for add bookmark?

This also affects less man and quite a few other console based programs that involve text paging.

No it's a bug. Fixed already.

It's back, at least on Solaris kde 3.1 rc6, what was the "fix"?
