	int leading = fm.leading();
	int height = 0;
	qreal widthUsed = 0;
	textLayout.beginLayout();
	while (1) {
		QTextLine line = textLayout.createLine();
		if (!line.isValid())
		break;
 
		line.setLineWidth(200);
		height += leading;
		line.setPosition(QPoint(0, height));
		height += (int) line.height();
		widthUsed = qMax(widthUsed, line.naturalTextWidth());
		textLayout.drawCursor(&p,t,2,3);
		}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

You'd have to run a timer to turn the cursor on and off. Anyways, have you noticed upcoming QPlainTextEdit?

Now my code contains these ugly lines:

#if QT_VERSION >= 0x040400
#	define	QTextEditorControl	QPlainTextEdit
#	warning	"Using QPlainTextEdit as the text editor control"
#else
#	define	QTextEditorControl	QTextEdit
#endif

#if QT_VERSION >= 0x040400
#	define	QTextEditorControl	QPlainTextEdit
#	warning	"Using QPlainTextEdit as the text editor control"
#else
#	define	QTextEditorControl	QTextEdit
#endif

(it crashes, but I will figure out whats wrong with it eventually)
