Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: externals Group: None Status: Open Resolution: Wont Fix Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: ClaudiusMaximus (claudiusmaximus) Assigned to: IOhannes m zmlnig (zmoelnig) Summary: zexy announce message charset confusion
Initial Comment: $ pd -stderr -verbose -lib zexy tried /usr/lib/pd/extra/zexy/zexy.pd_linux and succeeded
the zexy external 2.2.1 (l) forum::f::umlte compiled: Jun 17 2008 send me a 'help' message
$ echo $LANG en_GB.UTF-8
Without -stderr, TCL/Tk (version 8.5) or Pd's console gets really confused and displays a big empty space with invisible text that shows up only when carefully selected...
other externals may be affected by this issue too...

see attached screenshot of "pd -lib zexy"
doesn't seem to cause any non-cosmetic issues though

this is (somewhat) by intention. does it make any problems (apart from being "unpretty")?
as long as "zexy $(VERSION) and something indicating "copyleft <me>" is displayed, i will not fix it.
