Description Mike W 2003-02-14 00:24:55 UTC 
Version:           0.6.0cvs >= 20030209 (using KDE 3.1.0)
Installed from:    Gentoo
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.1 20021207 (Gentoo Linux 3.2.1-20021207)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.19-gentoo-r10

it sure would be handy to have a 'view history' button on the toolbar in the chat window... 

Personally, I prefer to use IM's like ICQ was originally (one msg at a time, instead of an irc style chat).. a lot of times i want to quickly look at what what said, but cant because i have to either go through the menus in the chat window, or right click on the contact in my contact list (not always on the same desktop) and hit 'view history'.

Set to LO priority as a wishlist item.

The hystory is now accessible via a right click on the contact name. 
i think it is enough

I think all actions from the popup menu also need to be available from a 
'Contact' menu in the menu bar, or they won't be accessible by keyboard. When 
done right adding this option also automagically makes it possible to add the 
option to the toolbar though KDE's standard KMainWindow code, though I agree 
that the toolbar button should not be in the default setup.

Yes i think too.
And the contact menu is already there (Chat > Contacts)
