Hi guys. I am very sorry that I had to trample on some of your work.
However, this is Subversion, and should my code turn out to be less useful
or more buggy, I'll be happy to reverse all changes I made!

The code that I submitted is supposed to be universal for all UTF-8
encodings, character size, character widths, etc. . It includes a very
convenient routine that measures and draws UTF-8 text. I put a lot of
effort into converting from character to pixel position and back, using
one single block of code (and one single source of bugs, if so).

I have touched every single line of code in Fl_Text_Buffer and checked it
for UTF-8/USC4 compatibility and fixed or annotated it. With very little
more effort, we should be able to implement the text wrapping again, so
that the new Fl_Text widget should be compatible with the old and at the
same time give complete support for proportional fonts in all
left-to-right scripts.

Again, I apologize that our efforts overlapped so much!

 - Matthias
