Hi: I do a lot of cut/paste of text from web pages. Until recently I have been using Gnome under Linux. Recently I switched to KDE under FreeBSD. I am trying to replace FireFox with Konqueror, and have run into what appears to be a bug. The best way to explain this is by example. From the KDE list page, cut/pasted into Kate: ----- This cut/paste from Konqueror Using kde To post a message to all the list members, send email to kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxx You can subscribe to the list, or change your existing subscription, in the sections below. Subscribing to kde Subscribe to kde by.... ----- This cut/paste from Firefox (same results with mozilla, and SeaMonkey) Using kde To post a message to all the list members, send email to kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxx You can subscribe to the list, or change your existing subscription, in the sections below. Subscribing to kde Subscribe to kde by .... ----- Notice the lack of blank lines in the Konqueror example. Looking at the original html, there are TWO line breaks for a blank line. These translate correctly into TWO "0A" (Line feed) chars in a Firefox cut/paste, but only one in a Konqueror cut/paste. I have the same problem in Akregegator, and in Knode news reader. None of these apps correctly translate blank lines (double line-feeds). While Akregegator and Konqueror display the blank lines correctly on the screen, Knode does not. Is there a global setting in KDE for this issue? Is it a bug? Is there a work-around? TIA Bob
