If I test this patch with winedt (available from www.winedt.com), my
X-server crashes when I try to load the Options dialog box. Winedt is a
program written in Delphi I think; Borland has a very special system to
simulate modal dialog boxes; I see the same problem with Bcb4.

You can use diffs against the whole tree : it saves time for people wanting
to try your patches.
