Well, I wasn't sure who would care :-). kdevelop owns the one I'm
fiddling with, but cmake probably cares and k-c-d might also. I took out
k-c-d for now, though.

Search-and-replace error indeed. Thought that might be it ;-).

I'm anti-ascii. Probably because I once worked with a guy who sent EVERY
BLOODY DESIGN SCHEMA as an ascii art thing. A year into that job and I
just about wanted to punch him in the head with an ascii fist. He
totally ruined ascii porn for me even. -- Aaron Seigo
