Hello,

I tried to duplicate your bug by generating my own file and pasting it as a 
single, very long base64 encode line into konversation, and I was disconnected 
with an [error] Closing link [Too long raw line]

Is there a chance that the disclosure was actually a problem with the IRC 
server you were connecting to?

My test was to connect to my znc bouncer open a query to myself and paste the 
file.

Diane
