           Summary: carriage returns cause editor glitches
           Product: kate
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 3.1 
OS:          Linux

This actually goes into the text editor embedded into Kate, but I'm not sure where to report that so I put this bug here.

If a file contains CR/LF combinations (\r\n type) at the end of the line, and that font doesn't have a display for that character, it causes glitches in the editor display.

I am going to attempt to attach two screenshots to this bug report to demonstrated what I'm talking about.  One screenshot will contain Kate viewed with a courier font that displays the ascii character #13 as a square, the other displays it as a tab of about 10 spaces, which seems to message kate up.

Please see the attached pics.
