I read and write to the list through gmane, because my newsreader is more
convenient for threads. Either my news client or gmane inserts line
breaks. Then I did [STRL-c]/[CTRL-v] from the mail archive. In this case
the line breaks were preserved, but leading spaces were remoed. However,
when I copy-pasted with the selection and middle mouse button I got the
correct patch. Looks like your mailing applications transfer the patch
without a change.

I'd even prefer non-aliased tracks in pcb. The little steps make it
easier to spot deviations from perpendicular angles.
More notes on the openGL amusement accumulated when I tried to do sone
real work:
* The view window blanks at certain events:
--> If an overlapping window is moved in front of pcb --> When a tool
tip about a window decoration closes --> When a pcb menu closes
without selecting an action --> When a sub menu closes
--> When gnome shows the mouse locator (as mentioned before)
I'd guess, these are all symptoms of the same redraw illness.
* If the preference dialog closes, the exposed part of the viewport is
rendered without transparency until the next redraw event.
* visible grid does not show.
* The cross at the origin set by [CTRL-m] does not show.
* The little L at the handle of locked elements does not show.
* The x coordinate of the cross hair does not snap to grid points. It only
snaps to pins, pads and end of tracks. However, the y coordinate does snap
to invisible grid points.
* There is no preview if I drag a track with the mouse.
Unfortunately, the last two bugs make the GL-patch next to unusable for
manual routing. Hopefully, they are easy to squash. Thanks again for
pushing geda ahead!
