This sounds like a bug to me. Looking at the code, there's no check to see if the word is the only word on a line The documentation for this API doesn't describe how it handles a word that's too long, so a patch for this would update the behavior and also document that when there is only one word, the code will truncate the word and return a pointer into the middle of the word. _______________________________________________ directfb-users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.directfb.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/directfb-users
