I can't create a newline when I use FldSetTextPtr, and can't figure out why.

If I use the following code:

char text[] = "Return right here:\nRight?";
FldSetTextPtr(f,text);

There is a little rectangle in place of the newline when I see this on the device.

If I put it in the resource file like this:

STRING ID 1000 "Return right here:\nRight?"

and then have the following code:

h = DmGet1Resource('tSTR',1000);
FldSetTextHandle(f,h);

It appears correctly, with a newline right after colon.

I have done a hexdump of both versions, and there is 0x0A at the right place in both.

Why doesn't the first version work?

Using:
m68k-palmos-gcc version 2.95.3-kgpd
pilrc version 3.1

Any tips appreciated.
