On Windows 2000,
using JDK1.3.1, and the font "Lucida Sans Typewriter": when editing italic
text (such as comments), the cursor is usually drawn at the wrong position (the
cursor usually appears many characters to the left of the actual insertion
point).
Build 544 did not
contain this problem. I am unsure of the builds inbetween.
This problem does
not occur when using Courier.
The most likely
reason for this problem is that Lucida Sans Typewriter has a different width for
italic characters than for regular characters.
