Depending on the config, that might be the type that causes a tooltip to be generated. > line set.

I've seen similar behavior, to the point that I don't use erss much anymore, because I haven't had a lot of time to debug. > Running it with gdb reveals that it never gets past an > erss_tooltip_new() function call.

And i'd _really_ like to know how to fix it :) There could be a bug in the wrapping code for etox that triggers an infinite loop. Could you send me a specific set of text that seems to cause it? I'll put together a small etox program with that text to see if I can replicate it outside of erss.
