To *look* at emerge.log, one uses less. Or more. Or most.

Never ever ever does one use a text editor to look at a log.

However, this is almost certainly a bug in kwrite, or kwrite has been 
configured to consider .log files to be some kind of sources that needs 
fomatting with collapsible sections. In either event, usage of kwrite 
is the wrong tool for the wrong job.

Dale, I think you have a teeny bit of six-year-old-with-a-hammer 
syndrome
