        try this (not actively tried though):
        @
        QTextCursor cursor = textEdit->textCursor();
        QFont boldFont(textEdit->font());
        boldFont.setBold(true);
        QTextCharFormat format;
        format.setFont(boldFont);
        cursor.setBlockCharFormat(format);
        @

          It's not enough though :) Final code is going to be:
          @
          QTextCursor cursor = textEdit->textCursor();
          QFont boldFont(textEdit->font());
          boldFont.setBold(true);
          QTextCharFormat format;
          format.setFont(boldFont);
          cursor.setBlockCharFormat(format);
          textEdit->setCursor(cursor); // maybe &cursor :)
          @

              Sorry, use this one instead: http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qtextedit.html#setTextCursor

              And why can't people not copy-paste but think, think a bit?
