Hi Marisa,
I've read your thread since some time and now the same thing happened
to me when I downloaded the new version of peruser, a simple offline newsreader.
It uses xforms 0.86 and showed all articles with an extra empty line.
So I tried out the browser object with the demo program "browserop.c", which
worked fine. But when I added a return character to each line that is added to
the browser, the extra line appears. If you recompile with xforms 0.81,
this behaviour disappears. So I walked through the code of peruser with xxgdb
and stripped the return chars before doing fl_add_browser_line() (or
fl_addto_browser() ).
I hope this will help you out. Just try using a debugger and have a look at the
,strings you are passing. I'm quite a newcomer to Linux and it helps me a lot to
find bugs and to understand code written by other people.
Good luck,
Oliver
