Hi Duncan,
After searching all configuration options in Krusader and viewing both of the
configuration files under /.kde4/share/ I have not been able to find where this
value is stored.

I then deleted Krusader and re-installed it making NO changes to any settings.
Ctrl-P is still opening a "split" dialog.  It would seem to be hard coded into
Krusader.

Also, I gave the wrong version of openSUSE.  It should be 13.1-M1.  Getting old
I guess.

When I login to OS 12.3, that version of Krusader has Ctrl-P opening a print
dialog as expected.  Should this be taken to a developers lsit?

Thanks, Tom
