Sorry to hear that. It fixed everything (for me) that was wrong with golded in
a UTF-8 console, obviously except actually displaying UTF-8 cyrillics in the
reader itself, which is why I use an external editor.

However, the true fix would most likely be to fix golded to work with the
latest changes in ncurses-6.0, or possibly (at least according to Maurice) to
compile the latest version of ncurses with wide character support _only_,
pairing with compiling golded with WIDE_NCURSES=1.

Since the former is most likely not going to be done, and I don't plan on
compiling a custom version of ncurses, even a kludge is a fix in my book.


Regards,
Nick
