Description Oliver Kellogg 2023-03-16 00:07:51 UTC
Git master src/irc/channellistpanelui.ui:64 contains

<property name="whatsThis">
       <string>The filtered list of channels is displayed here. Notice [...]. The channel name does not have to start with the string you entered.\n\nSelect a channel you want to join by clicking on it. 

Notice the "\n\n" at  "string you entered.\n\nSelect a channel [...]"

Those characters appear verbatim in the actual tooltip.
See attached screenshot.

Fix What's This? text in the Channel List pane

The text is now wrapped in paragraph tags, as newline characters aren't
rendered in the popup.
