Re: Keyboard input losses also on MS Windows

[Franco F. <ffr...@Ca...>]

Gnuplot team,

I also found that the first key is missing when starting gnuplot, when
I compiled the CVS source. I first noticed it for version 4.0.2.
But it is not only the first keystroke, also the commands from the pull
done window are missing the first character. 

On top of this it depends on how gnuplot is launched and if the mouse
pointer is moved and or inside the new gnuplot window.
(also noticed by Daniel J Sebald)

I have done some experiments with the latest CVS from yesterday, and 
compiled this with replacing some files with files from the source tar
ball of 4.0.0.

If I replace mouse.c .h and readline.c  I get still the same behavior.
This is not what Hans-Bernard Broeker found, he wrote in this list

If I replace wtext.c .h and all the other source code is from the CVS
from yesterday, the problem with the first character are gone.
So in mine opion it is not mouse.c or readline.c but wtext.c with was
modified to remove a very old bug, but introduced a new bug.
