But I found that if I use accents like '^' in my comments and I want to make some later corrections (deleting a letter, typing more etc.)the cursor appears dislocated.

>Is GridFlow loaded ? It forces Pd to use UTF-8 (Unicode) on OSX, so that it produces patches that are loadable on Linux, and so that I can write accents at all in Linux. Then it also has that side effect, that the cursor is off, because I couldn't make a complete fix of Pd from within an external.
