This must be a Linux thing because Marcin (cde 2.5.2) and my (latest cde git commit) FreeBSD systems don't have this problem. It could be any library. You can see which libraries might be involved by running ldd against the binary. Just looking at the dtpad sources, DtEditorFormat() does the heavy lifting. That looks numerous other functions, some native CDE, others Motif. My guess is some pointer is getting mangled somewhere. Is the machine you're on 64-bit or 32-bit? (I've configured the FreeBSD port/package to only build/run on 64-bit architectures because on i386 it cannot bind to temporary type va_list whereas on amd64 it can.) -- Cheers, Cy Schubert <cy.schub...@cschubert.com> FreeBSD UNIX: <c...@freebsd.org> Web: https://FreeBSD.org NTP: <c...@nwtime.org> Web: https://nwtime.org e^(i*pi)+1=0 > > Am 16.05.24 um 21:20 schrieb Marcin Cieslak: > > On Thu, 16 May 2024, Edmond Orignac wrote: > > > >> > >> Le 16/05/2024 à 20:11, Marcin Cieslak a écrit : > >>> On Thu, 16 May 2024, Edmond Orignac via cdesktopenv-devel wrote: > >>> > >>>> I have noticed a curious behavior in dtpad. > >>>> > >>>> When trying to format a paragraph using the Format menu, dtpad > >>>> erases the paragraph > >>>> > >>>> under the cursor instead of wrapping long lines. > >> > >> I am using CDE 2.5.2 in Ubuntu 20.04 (x86_64), and it is true that I > >> did not notice this issue before. > >> > >> I could test with an older 2.4.0 release on a different computer to > >> see if the problem appeared already > >> > >> with that version. > > > > Unlikely - just installed 2.5.2 from FreeBSD ports and dtpad works fine > > there, too.
