You are using a nightly WIP build, yes? You are probably seeing a known
bug (which is my fault and which I am ashamed of)

Yes, I was using the latest WIP at the time I sent that e-mail.

If you can figure out steps to reproduce this bug consistently, it will
help emmensely. This bug kept biting me when I was working on Plip
Tamer, but I could never figure out exactly how to repeat it on purpose.


I shall look into that. Anything I can do to help. :D

Oh, one more thing! In the future please refrain from mailing gigantor

uncompressed BMP screenshots! Convert your screenshots to GIF, PNG, or
JPG before sending them.


*wince* I'll remember to do that next time I have a need of screenshots. And
if all else fails, ImageShack + TinyURL! :D
