Description palantir 2003-04-15 20:16:48 UTC
Version:           2.1 (using KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:    compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-8

This is particularily annoying if you are developing and debugging
a windowed application (for me it's a java swing app).

1. Open and edit some code
2. Settings->Show tools->Terminal
3. Clic on the terminal to select it
4. Type the name of an application that opens a window
4. The cursor will disappear to let you type more easily
5. Press return to start the application

At this point, the cursor won't appear anymore in the terminal pane, 
even if you close the terminal and re-show it agein (must restart kate).

KCursor bug, disabled in kate, konsole still uses it, reassign to konsole

Why not reassign it to kdelibs if it's a KCursor bug!?
