Remove dead code, including the non-functional scroll lock code. Scroll lock support will be re-implemented in the termina<br>
l display widget post KDE 4.0 if there is a demand for it.<br>
<br>
Now the question is should we reimplement it?<br>
<br>
I personally does not like to do it, bacause it seems to requires quite some code to implement it correctly. Also, a simple google searching of "Konsole scroll lock" suggests that feature was annoying to some users when it was there.<br>
<br>
If the consensus is to not reimplement it again, I think we should clean up the left over code related with the "Scroll Lock" key in KeyboardTranslator, Vt102Emualtion, and XKB.<br>
<br></blockquote><div>Hello,</div><div> None of my keyboards even have a 'Scroll Lock'. I would agree that unless it is trivial to implement we need not. How much old code is there that could be removed?</div>
