Telnet Application using Qt

Hey,

I'm very new to Qt and I'm looking to write a GUI Mud (Multi-user dungeon) client with the framework.

I've checked out various widgets such as QTextEdit, but haven't been able to find anything that fulfills my requirements.

The text buffer:
- Needs to have a scroll back containing potentially hundreds of thousands of lines.
- Consecutive characters can have different foreground and background colors. The widget would ideally automatically interpret ascii color codes, like a shell.
- Although all the text in the buffer should be in a single font, the font should be changeable.

I suppose, in short, I'd like to embed a read-only xterm who's font I can modify into a Qt Gui app =).

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Take a look at kmc and Konsole.
