Hey Wilfred!

 WvV> And Maurice is there too

Yes I am.  However it doesn't matter to me where it is discussed.

BTW instead of using 'tmux -c ge' (gedlnx here) try using 'tmux new ge' 
instead.  It will automagically exit the tmux enviroment when exiting golded, 
or at least it does here.  Having said that, golded works fine without tmux but 
then again I have a proper utf-8 enviroment as well as a version of ncurses 
that golded can live with.  The only problem with mutilbyte characters is that 
the cursor doesn't align itself behind the last character typed in edit mode 
since it falsely counts characters as simgle bytes when they obviously aren't.  
For example "A Møøse once bit my sister..." will look like this in the golded 
editor;

  "A Møøse once bit my sister...  _"

Note I am using the underscore to show where the cursor will line up in that 
sentence where it *should* line up as follows;

  "A Møøse once bit my sister..._"

Note the extra two spaces where there are none at the end of the faulty golded 
line.  Oh well ... getting closer ... not that it really matters.  Does it?

Life is good,
Maurice
