Comment 2 Need Real Name 2002-11-11 19:52:31 EST

I have located the problem: the return value of the function
g_unichar_iswide in glib2 is incorrect for some unicode chars
(e.g., U201C, U201D, etc.).

Comment 3 Ray Strode [halfline] 2004-11-10 15:32:04 EST

Hi,

This bug is quite old now.  Given the lack of activity on this report and the
likelihood that this bug has already been fixed, I am going to close it.  If you
encounter the problem discussed in this report with Fedora Core 3 or a recent
version of vte and gnome-terminal feel free to reopen.

Thanks
