Hi, all

I'm new to this newsgroup.
I have a little question for anyone kind enough to reply, ;-)

I compiled  the latest web source files for PVengine for Windows.
Everything goes fine, i get Pvengine to run, and render.
(Win95-pentium166-32ram)

Now the funny part :
With the 'Release' version, everything goes fine, BUT, :-o
the font of the filenames in the editor tabs
(including the first tab : the 'Messages' one) get really screwed up !!!

Like one single "chinese" character in the top-left corner of each tab.
hugh..... :-(

I saw a line about that in 'pvtext.c'

// bug in Watcom 10.6 causes this to make the tabbed control's font go
screwy. I don't know why.
(refering to  a  '? : :'  macro that had to be replaced by a classic
'if' statement.)

Seems the same thing happens to me !
Maybe there is more than this macro/if that can cause this little
bug....
The strange thing is that it doesn't occur with the debug version !! the
tabs are correct.
so i guess it's my compilers option, tried everything with no succes,
always this same difference between the 'Debug' and 'Release'
versions...

Has anyone ever heard of that ??
Any suggestions, help, info, or whatever would be really cool !
Thanks in advance.
