Hi!

It looks like this is a bug in KDElibs 4.2.x, but apparently it's fixed in
KDElibs 4.3.x. (See this thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/rkward-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg00570.html).

I'll leave this report open until you get a chance to upgrade to KDE 4.3.x
and test again.

Regards
Thomas

Yes, the R  highlighting.

Any file. 
R highlighting is used in kate automatically.

No, that makes no difference.

Always.

Not really sure, but I believe I saw this effect in earlier versions, too.

I don't use reload very often, but the reload notification/dialog after
file changes (e.g. svn up)
-which is VERY useful btw -  exposes the issue from time to time.

Just tried it on another fresh Ubuntu 9.04 installation - same thing
there.

Thanks!
Ralf.

Hi Ralf!

Thanks for reporting. I can't reproduce this with RKWard 0.5.2 / KDE
4.3.2, here. Syntax highlighting continues to work after a reload. 

Therefore, some follow-up questions:
1) I assume it's the R highlighting, we're talking about, not any other
highlighting mode?
2) Does this happen for any file, or just some? If it's just some, could
you provide a sample? If you open the same file in kate, is the R
highlighting used, automatically, or do you have to specify it, once?
3) Does the file name extension make any difference ('.R' vs. something
else)
4) Only after editing / not editing the file, or always?
5) Do you think this issue is new in RKWard 0.5.2, or could it have been
present, before?

Regards
Thomas
