[Konversation-devel] Implementing split screen

[Albert Yiamakis]

Hello,

I am wondering about the possibility of implementing split screen for 
konversation, so as to be able to see multiple chat windows 
simultaneously, or have multiple views into the same on.

There has been an issue posted on the bugtracking system (https://
bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=291261) for which I have now cast a vote. 
However, there doesn't seem to be much activity and the issue dates back 
to 2012, so I have been thinking of implementing this on my own.

As I am unfamiliar with the Konversation source code however, I could use 
a pointer or two. Would it be correct that IRCView class is used by 
ChatWindow to show the irc messages and that what I am looking for 
essentially is to have multiple IRCView into the same ChatWindow?

To familiarize myself with the code, I have started reading the source 
code and this mailing list. If there are any other places where an 
overview of the code could be found, I would greatly appreciate being 
pointed to them.

Thank you,

Albert
