It will use        VA>> whole window width unless you use "Dispmargin" parameter in your        VA>> config.

That's your choice. :) I just want to tell that GoldEd was        VA>> designed to work with one byte encodings and UTF-8 may work        VA>> incorrectly.               NB> Definitely understood. However, it worked _better_ before, and I'm        NB> just trying to figure out what happened and why.               NB> With that said, I'm not ruling out the possibility something was        NB> actually "fixed" that broke my utf-8 hackery, either. :)              Could be. Let's keep looking for cause.              [...skipped...]               VA>> Got it. What is weird, last commit fixed issue for one sysop and        VA>> broken it for you.               NB> Yes, I know. I've had some side discussions with Wilfred about this        NB> exact issue. However, it seems he's using a bit more of a single-byte        NB> setup than I am. So, it's possible that he is doing less translation        NB> from cp437 to utf-8 (as far as I know, he isn't using any xlat        NB> settings whatsoever in golded.conf) .               VA>> Could you try to build from commit        VA>> 372220588c6f17cd3f709dcb721a9144169d988c ? It was before all my        VA>> changes. If it will have same behavior, then it's something wrong        VA>> with setup on your side and we'll try to figure that out.               NB> I can, but as I'm not super experienced with git, so I have some        NB> questions.               NB> When I use 'git bisect' with these steps:               NB> $ git bisect start        NB> $ git bisect bad        NB> $ git bisect good 372220588c6f17cd3f709dcb721a9144169d988c               NB> I get this:               NB> Bisecting: 29 revisions left to test after this (roughly 5 steps)        NB> [f535cc792abd5d254da57a2f5b70d5b02cbd7abf] Add github actions badge               NB> This is a much later revision after quite a few of your changes, so        NB> 'git bisect' didn't seem to take me back as far as you wanted me to        NB> go.. unless I'm doing something wrong.               NB> I did see this after typing 'git bisect --help':               NB> " Once you have specified at least one bad and one good commit, git        NB> bisect selects a commit in the middle of that range of history, checks        NB> it out, and outputs something similar to the following: "               NB> So am I actually able to specify which commit I would like to go back        NB> to with 'git bisect' or should I use 'git checkout'? If checkout is        NB> the answer, I won't be able to keep track of good or bad commits any        NB> more.              So how bisect works.       You start process with git bisect start as you already did.       First you mark some commit which is good for sure with git bisect good. Then       mark "bad" commit with git bisect bad. That will be last commit in repo.              git will checkout commit in the middle of those two for you. Then you build it       and test. If it's good, run git bisect good, if it's bad, git bisect bad.       Build it and test again.              You need to repeat that process multiple times, until git says that it found       bad commit.              Best regards,       Vitaliy Aksyonov.              ...        а мосту стояли трое - он, она и у него...       --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20231030        * Origin: Aurora, Colorado (1:104/117)       SEEN-BY: 15/0 18/200 50/109 90/1 104/117 105/81 106/201 128/260 129/305       SEEN-BY: 135/225 153/7715 218/700 226/30 227/114 229/110 112 113 206       SEEN-BY: 229/307 317 400 426 428 470 664 700 266/512 280/464 5555       SEEN-BY: 282/1038 291/111 292/854 301/1 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45       SEEN-BY: 460/16 58 256 1124 5858 463/68 467/888 633/280 712/848 3634/12       SEEN-BY: 5000/111 5001/100 5005/49 5015/46 5020/828 846 1042 4441       SEEN-BY: 5030/49 5054/8 30 5061/133 5075/128 5083/444 5090/958       PATH: 104/117 5020/1042 460/58 229/426           |
