Version: 1.7 (using KDE 4.7.3) OS: Linux If you have a file with a newline (\n) in the name dolphin crashes when opening the containing folder. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Open dolphin. Right click an empty area and click Create New > Text File Enter foo\n as the name and click OK Actual Results: Dolphin Crashes(Seg. Fault) Expected Results: Create a file with a newline in the name
Thanks for the report, but I cannot reproduce the issue with KDE 4.7.4 and also not with trunk (KDE 4.8). Could you please provide a backtrace of the crash (see http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports#Backtraces)?
Created attachment 67958 [details] Backtrace I discovered that it is the dropbox(dolphin-box-plugin) plugin that is causing this so I will report the bug there.

Thanks for the backtrace. I'm quite sure that it has been fixed in the meantime in 4.8 but I currently cannot test the issue due to limited time and some other issues that need to be fixed. It would be great if you could check again whether the issue still occurs as after 4.8 gets available and let us know here whether my "I'm quite sure" was valid ;-)
I tested this with 4.8 RC2 in a VirtualBox and it appears to be fixed.
