<hr><a name="details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<b>This class is obsolete.</b> It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
<p> The QMultiLineEdit widget is a simple editor for inputting text.
<p>
<p> The QMultiLineEdit was a simple editor widget in former Qt versions. Qt
3.0 includes a new richtext engine which obsoletes QMultiLineEdit. It is
still included for compatibility reasons. It is now a subclass of
<a href="qtextedit.html">QTextEdit</a>, and provides enough of the old QMultiLineEdit API to keep old
applications working.
<p> If you implement something new with QMultiLineEdit, we suggest using
<a href="qtextedit.html">QTextEdit</a> instead and call <a href="qtextedit.html#setTextFormat">QTextEdit::setTextFormat</a>(Qt::PlainText).
<p> Although most of the old QMultiLineEdit API is still available, there is
a few difference. The old QMultiLineEdit operated on lines, not on
paragraphs. As lines change all the time during wordwrap, the new
richtext engine uses paragraphs as basic elements in the data structure.
All functions (<a href="#numLines">numLines</a>(), <a href="#textLine">textLine</a>(), etc.) that operated on lines, now
operate on paragraphs. Further, getString() has been removed completely.
It revealed too much of the internal data structure.
<p> Applications which made normal and reasonable use of QMultiLineEdit
should still work without problems. Some odd usage will require some
porting. In these cases, it may be better to use <a href="qtextedit.html">QTextEdit</a> now.
