Kate needs BiDi/Unicode aware developers ;)

Saturday, 3 November 2012 | Christoph Cullmann


During our long bug hunting and fixing sprint I came along some nasty BiDi or Unicode related bugs.

I and most others in the Kate team are not really able to fix such issues :( We lack both the knowledge of the underlying techniques and are not able to write/read any language that really uses complex unicode chars or BiDi text.

Therefore: If you know Qt and you want to help out with fixing BiDi/Unicode related bugs, please provide patches for them in the KDE Bugzilla!

Here are the relevant bugs:

Any help here is highly appreciated! If you have questions about the internals of KatePart needed to fix such an issue, just ask in the bug or kwrite-devel@kde.org.
