I seem to vaguely recall that you do need kdebase installed for Help to do 
anything. But for many months even with kdebase installed clicking on Help in 
any app crashed my X server so I don't tend to choose that menu very often.

You also need kdebase for background mail checking to work. (at least 
kdebase/kioslave/pop3)

I will commit the patch, and give it a fair try to decide whether I like it 
or not.

Actually just too see what people thought I turned off underlining links in 
the reader window a few weeks ago. If people prefer underlining speak up and 
I'll turn it back on.

BFN,
Don.
