Have you tried the debug version?

Is it in the buglist by any chance? Bug Number?

Once Wxwindows stops changing about 100 files per day in their CVS we
might have a chance :-) We are also slowly finding a few bugs and
fixing them. I'm not a C++ programmer and even I fixed one last night LOL

Aha. Rich text is not a marvellous part of the code at present. That
is more of a long term thing at present. At the moment we are working
to getting text side of things working 100%. Of course the rich side
depends on wxWindows a lot. Once they stabilise things we will be able
to evaluate where we are at. wx gives us a lot of benefits but OTOH is
also a big dependancy.

I hear that same statement from our developers all the time.

All input is valuable. It would be nice just to recompile and drop it
in but things seldom go that smoothly :-)

Aha. In he editable part of the text rather than in the GUI header
block.
