Description Praveen A 2010-02-09 14:54:04 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

konsole does not render complex scripts properly. This puts
konsole in a bad light compared to other kde software, most of them
handling complex texts well. Being an installed by default component it is less
than desirable to not fix this. file names using complex scripts, outputs of
localized applications ... give a less than pleasant experience when using
konsole. So currently I'm using terminal mode of emacs to get the
required rendering support. I hope this will be fixed soon.

If someone, preferably someone who can actually read an Indic script can investigate the problem and provide patches then it will be.  Otherwise I cannot promise anything soon.

text data lose in konsole

more bad effect is Data lose in konsole:
if you copy and paste data from konsole to GUI text editor, the 
Upper/lower Base unicode characters completely in text (while paste back to gedit 
from konsole.
test text data below:
[ਜਿਸ੍ਰ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਕੰਈ ਮਿਲ੍ਵ ਜਾਂਵਗਾ ਉੱਸ ਤਰਹਾ ਹਿ ਹਿ]
