Beware!
Hi, long ago I had a deep look at the kde3 code because it caused a crash.

I also found (at that time) that the code was not perfectly optimized and it 
was not capable of handling different line ending styles CR vs LF vs CR LF 
and it did not handle various unicode encodings correctly.

Again: the use of mmap() caused exceptions in one network filesystem (smb at 
that time). Please be very carefull before changing it.
