I believe those methods are Qt 3-specific. In C++/Qt they are still
available, but to quote the documentation "They are provided to help you
port old code to Qt 4. We advise against using them in new code."

Qt 4 usage is to set text using setPlainText() and insertPlainText(), or
setHtml() and insertHtml(), and to retrieve using toPlainText() or
toHtml(). You can also call acceptRichText(bool) to control whether the
user can insert HTML, e.g., by pasting HTML from elsewhere.
