Ah, I now understand the problem you're experiencing.  I was not
experiencing the same problem because I do not use a theme which
alters the GtkText widget's colors.  In looking at your patch which
addresses this problem:

I think it would be a little cleaner by simplifying it to just:

		if (*files == NULL) {
			doc_new(w, NULL, DocText, (DO_LOAD | UPDATE_TITLE));
			gtk_widget_show(w->toplev);
	+		doc_redraw(DOC_CURRENT(w));
	 
			/*
			 * setting the switch page signal here is kind of hokey, but we


However, I'm still uncertain as to why the problem is even manifesting
itself.  That is, from inspecting the code, I don't see anything that
comes after the creation of an untitled doc that would cause the
properties of the text widget to change.

I have no idea here.  Supposedly, GTK has support for wheeled mice.
Perhaps there is something that needs to be done in gnotepad that can
trigger the support correctly.
