Hi Alan
How would you like me to deal with any further wxWidgets bugs this week?

I would guess that anything contained within the wxWidgets driver
would be okay, however a number of those bugs are plbuffer related.
For example I have just fixed the rotation problem with example 3. I
turned out that the rotation was not saved to the buffer, so this
requires a new command type and new functions in blbuf.c, so it is not
what I would call a trivial change.
