Hi Michiel,

On 2014-04-17 13:54:08, you wrote to me:

In nano and the Midnight Commander viewer and editor it looks ok:

So it seems to be a Golded specific problem. It might have to do with the special patch I applied to the Golded source code, as suggested in the GOLDED area. Because the "plain" version kept on crashing on some utf-8 messages...
