   thanks for this patch. But if one bug is corrected, it seems that one other
   is still there. 

   After applying fix-2 and fix-3, I play with idraw, and specially 8 bit chars.
   All feel good, execpt that once a file (with 8 bits chats) has been saved, 
   idraw can't re-read it correctly, and it displays bullets in place of 
   the 8 bits chars.

The patch below is archived as fix4 in the 3.0-fixes directory on
interviews.stanford.edu.

        Apply with ``patch -p -N < fix4'' at the top of the source tree.
