To my horror, I discovered a rather embarrassing bug in kttsd. The effect of
the bug is that appendText calls are completely ignored. appendText is used
to add another part to an existing text job created with setText.
Apparently, no apps are currently using this function, but since we won't
have another KDE release before KDE4 for quite some time, I'd like to see
this fixed for the KDE 3.5 release.
I've made a fix, but unfortunately, it isn't trivial. The timing of this is
really bad because KDE 3.5rc1 is just going out and KDE 3.5final is probably
just a week or two away. I'm reluctant to commit the fix and risk breaking
kttsd in some other, unintended way just before release.
So I'm looking for testers who can give me some confidence the fix is OK
before I commit it.
If you can help, go to http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116031, download
the patch and follow the instructions.
Thanks
