#1398: Cannot insert return in "Set User Info"
-----------------------------------------------------------------+----------
 Reporter:  imwithjesus                                          |       Type:  defect
   Status:  new                                                  |   Priority:  minor 
Component:  pidgin (gtk)                                         |    Version:  2.0.1 
 Keywords:  profile set user info information return enter line  |    Pending:  0     
-----------------------------------------------------------------+----------
 I wanted a new account, so I went to '''Accounts > [Account Name] > Set
 User Info...'''

 I cannot insert a return in my profile. Pressing the enter key does not
 move the cursor to the next line. Instead, I need to press the spacebar
 repeatedly to begin a new line. Note: my enter key isn't broken; it
 functions properly in Pidgin and all other programs, EXCEPT in this
 situation. Restarting the computer/reinstalling Pidgin doesn't help.

 I found a way around this by editing the '''C:\Documents and
 Settings\[Current User]\Application Data\.purple\accounts.xml'''. I had to
 manually insert a '''<br>''' (<br>) where I want a new line to
 begin.

 Please make the enter/return keys to insert a return (<br>) when
 editing user info.
