Description John Firebaugh 2004-10-10 05:13:41 UTC
Version:           unknown (using KDE 3.3.0,  (3.1))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.4 (Debian 1:3.3.4-12)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.7-1-k7

Double clicking to select a word now behaves very annoyingly. It seems that only spaces are considered word boundaries. For example, double clicking the last word before a period or comma selects the word and the comma, double clicking a method definition "foo( 1, 2 )" selects the parenthesis as well, and if there are any adjacent tabs they are also selected. This may be the "KDE text editor default behavior" or something, but it's simply unacceptable when editing code. Please restore the old behavior.
