Hard linebreaks is the correct way.
Mail clients can determine what's supposed to be a continous paragraph by checking whether or not the line ends with a space.
You can turn of this feature, but you don't want to. |

Yes they will; you will run a rootless X-server inside your DirectFB environment. You would gain speed for local applications at the cost of speed for remote applications. I could live with that. |

Because:
- Konsole is by far superior to all other terminal emulators I've tried. I own a PowerMac and have tried the MacOS X ones, and they all suck in comparasion. gnome-terminal is a joke too. It may not support "true transparency" (like there's such a thing), but I wouldn't want that anyway (I keep my terminals on a separate desktop, not overlapping other windows)
- Kmail is decidedly the best mail client I've ever tried. It's what Outlook should have been (everybody knows Outlook is a joke in terms of security, and it lacks kmail's powerful filters)
- Kdevelop is the best IDE I've tried (beats MS Visual Studio IMHO). Its support for the GNU autotools and CVS rocks.
- KDE's binary themeability lets me vary my desktop look to such wonderful widget sets as Keramik and Liquid. I also like the themeable icons.
- Konqueror now beats Internet Explorer, but maybe Gecko still is better than KHTML (haven't tried Gecko out in a while -- KHTML works splendidly for all my tasks)
- KDE is fast enough (starts way faster than Aqua)
- I can at any submit patches (which I do several times a week), download the newest version and discuss with the actual developers
- The fuzzy clock is extremely cool
There might be shortcomings elsewhere, but they don't affect my daily work. |
