Re: point-and-click default

[Valentin Petzel]

May I just fan the fire by saying that on kde this works out of the box?

That being said, the only really usable pnc implementation is Frescobaldi, as 
that one will keep track while you’re editing the file and thus always point to 
the right thing.

And I don’t see much of a problem with disabling pnc by default, but it would 
not change much as most people would probably activate it somewhere and still 
forget to deactivate it for sharing.

Cheers,
Valentin
