Hi,

In version 3.1.38-1 on stable, block reformatting sometimes changes
the content when the first character in the second line is either an
asterisk or a slash. Here is how to produce it:

1. Save the first attachment.
2. Invoke 'cat test.txt' in a GNOME terminal window
3. Highlight the two lines with the mouse and copy to clipboard.
4. Invoke 'jmacs'
5. Paste into the editor with the right button of the mouse.
6. The editor breaks the first line into two.
7. Move cursor to the first position in the second line ('and')
8. Hit backspace once to join 'long' and 'and' on the first line.
9. Invoke Alt-Q

The editor then shows the contents in the second attachment 'jumbled.txt'.

The same thing happens when the slash is altered into an asterisk
before the two words are combined. Perhaps it is a feature related to
bullet points, but I did not expect the results.

Thanks for providing a nifty little editor with UTF-8 support!

Kind regards
Felix Lechner
