Hmm, I'm not able to reproduce this. Are there spaces in any file
paths when you see this?

Can you test some updates for me? Please try replacing your
installation's files of the same name with the four most recent files
in CVS:

http://cream.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/cream/cream/?sortby=date#dirlist

Are you using Preference > Last File Restore? These updates should fix
the last remaining tab refresh and buffer recall issues I've seen. I'm
curious if some underlying structural work relates to the hanging
issue you see.

Thank you for the feedback and continued interest in improving Cream.
I'm almost to the point where it does what I need or I'm satisfied
with the workarounds so as not to keep pushing it very hard. It helps
when users are patient enough to detail bugs--it makes the path to a
fix quantifiable. Sometimes the hardest part is just knowing where to
start.
