Description Bill Kendrick 2004-03-12 16:10:50 UTC

Version:           v0.8.3 (using KDE 3.2.0,  (3.0))
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.18-bf2.4

When re-sorting a list in KGet (e.g., the "List All Links" list from Konqueror), it is not apparent how the list is sorted.  Typically, when clicking a list column header, that header gets a little 'up-arrow' or 'down-arrow' icon, showing you that the list is sorted by that header, and in which direction (ascending or descending).  In the attached screenshot, you can see the same list sorted by Description and then by Filename.  The column headers, however, give no clue.  (I circled them manually in red in The Gimp :^) )  Thanks!

I have outlined the columns in red using the paintbrush in The Gimp.  Of
course, they should simply have little "^" or "v" icons. :)
