Hi:
I do a lot of cut/paste of text from web pages.
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, [ https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde ]
cut/pasted into Kate (same results pasting to VI):

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 with Akregegator, and with Knode . 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, none of these apps work correctly if I cut the text from the
screen.
Is there a global setting in KDE for this issue? Is it a bug? Is there a
work-around?
TIA
Bob
