[I'm on a VAXstation 3100; could someone check this elsewhere?]
In 7.4, the built-in text window for OLH ("internal viewer") now only displays
76/77 characters in its text area, rather than a full 78. To see this: select
the Use External Viewers item from the Options pull-down menu; then select 1
[Welcome to Athena], then 6 [List of Clusters or whatever]; scroll to the
bottom; notice that some characters are cut off. (These are NOT cut off in
7.3 on the same machine type; i.e., cut-off starts on the 79th character).
We need to fully see 78 characters.
Also, with regard to the text area for OLH, it still doesn't support standard
cut/paste extension (i.e., extending the selection area using the right mouse
button). This was also true in the past, but I'm surprised it hasn't been
fixed yet in the Motif text widget. Are we not toggling some switch right,
or is this truly not fixed yet?
