           Summary: Konversation doesn't correctly parse ANSI escape
                    sequences
           Product: konversation
           Version: 1.2.3
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konversation-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: rnddim at gmail.com


Version:           1.2.3 (using KDE 4.4.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

ANSI escape sequences control the formatting of text. I come across them a lot
in the channels I visit, and it's annoying to see a bunch of gibberish instead
of the formatting.

An ANSI escape sequence begins with the escape character (U+001B) and a left
bracket ([) (it can also begin with just the character sequence introducer,
U+009B). It then goes on with a code of some sort for stating the purpose of
the sequence (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code#Codes for a
list)

This would allow for proper formatting of text, and possibly rich text editor
functions later on.
