Hi!

hey, I am fast this time. Even before the announcement 8-)
Just saw that beta4 is out and installed it immediately. 
Seems to work fine :-)

Here some issues which attracted my attention during the past few days.
I just copy my (KnowIt) note into this mail without further comments, it's 
late and I am slightly tired ;-)

1. Something for the TODO list:

support for storing/restoring sessions. 

2. backup 

If the backup flag is set, the file gets backed up when opened (at the end of 
Knowit::open() ).
Shouldn't it get backed up before being overwritten the file (in 
Knowit::save() )?

3. Use scenario:

- user creates a new file
- user modifies initial file (adds note etc.)
- user quits
- file dialog appears
- user presses cancel in file dialog
- Dialog appears: "File cannot be saved. Quit anyway?" - Yes, No

Wouldn't it be better this way (the "kwrite way"):

- user creates a new file
- user modifies initial file (adds note etc.)
- user quits
- dialog appears "document 'unnamed' was modified. Do you want to save it?" -     
save, discard, cancel
- If the user chooses "save" and presses "cancel" in the file dialog, the file  
dialog is closed and the program remains opened.


So long,

Frank
