Dieter,
Good catch! It seems to be an issue with the Courier font in Windows.
If I replace the line that specifies the font with one saying "Sans
12" everything is fine and I'm guessing that the mysterious
disappearing cursor problem might be improved too.
I had reasons for wanting to use a Courier font, but for Windows users
of my program this is a useful workaround.
On Windows you should use "Courier New" rather than "Courier" anyway.
Courier is an old bitmap font which is probably why it doesn't work
properly, Courier New is the truetype version.
You could also use the font name "monospace" which will default to a
useful monospaced font. I'm not sure what the standard GTK+ install uses
but it should be Consolas where available (Vista and 7 for sure) falling
back to Courier New otherwise.
