[PyKDE] QSyntaxHighlighter issues

[stuff at mailzilla.net]

Try passing "self" into the constructor of the base class (ie. __init__ 
method) in the constructor of your derived classes. 

Change this:
        QSyntaxHighlighter(edit)
to:
        QSyntaxHighlighter.__init__(self, edit)

and:
        QTextEdit(parent,name)
to:
        QTextEdit.__init__(self, parent,name)

Hope this helps,

Phil Schwartz
