Description Alexander Skwar 2002-06-16 21:57:13 UTC
When typing lines which contain a lot of "high bit" characters like äöu,
Pan doesn't wrap the line correctly.

I just tried typing this non-sense line:

Bösföäla sdfölsdaf äölsadf öäöäsdaf öäsfdl fasdfplüawle füweaf äölls als
als al als ls lfdsf lksdfa

Pan put this all on one huge line.

I typed this as a followup to this article:

When I started typing, I put the cursor before "Alexander Skwar", after ">
Alexander Skwar\n".  When I got close to the end of the line where Pan
would normally wrap the line, it messed up with the text beneath what I
typed.  The text then looked like this:

After I typed even more rubbish, Pan destroyed more and more of the
following lines.

Setting to major, because it not only is a "usability" bug, but also messes
up the text.  This bug might be related to bug# 85502.

Fixed for 0.12.1 and merged to HEAD.
