[Bug 89409] New: Join lines removes trailing space, joins words

------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89409 Summary: Join lines removes trailing space, joins words Product: kate Version: 2.3 Platform: RedHat RPMs OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general AssignedTo: kwrite-devel kde org ReportedBy: jon.roland the-spa com Version: 2.3 (using KDE KDE 3.3.0) Installed from: RedHat RPMs OS: Linux I believe this has been previous reported as bugs 61566, 62556, and 69401, but the latter two were designated duplicates of the first, that that was marked fixed. It has not been fixed. It makes no difference if dynamic word wrap or static word wrap is turned on or off. Need to make sure that lines, when joined, always insert a space between, unless there is already a space. In Kate type in enough words to wrap, then make the window more narrow, to cause re-wrap, then split a line with a RETURN, leaving a trailing space, move cursor to upper line, then hit "Rejoin lines". The trailing space is lost, causing words to be improperly joined together. This problem affects Quanta+, which uses Kate, causing HTML errors. The solution should be tested in combination with Quanta+ to make sure the bug does not appear in the editor of either, with the default settings.

------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89360 ------- Additional Comments From michael.goettsche kdemail net 2004-09-13 16:03 ------- Yes, I know of bash completion and of DCOP. ;-) You've probably missunderstood my report. I'm talking about a "shell interface" inside Kate. Have a look at "View -> Switch to Command Line F7". It opens a text line, I'd like to have something similar for 'open' and similar commands. For an idea how it could work, try C-x C-f in Emacs. I've had a discussion about my report on #kde-devel. Most people were at the opinion that it's rather KFileDialog that should be improved. A start would be to have the focus on the file list. If you think the same, you can reassign the report, but I still think that a better KFileDialog can't be as fast for keyboards as a input line.

Just add focus by default to the top type-in line, and you got what you get in e-macs... well much better one since this one autocompletes ;)
