Konsole 1.5 / KDE 3.4 [ March 16, 2005 ]

• There are two major internal changes:
  • The hiding of the tabbar is now done via ktabwidget->setTabBarHidden(). This greatly simplifies hiding and unhiding of the tabbar. This also closes a number of bugs related to the tabbar. This has the side effect of adding extra pixels around the terminal border.
