1. On RichEdit problems

Derek,
Thanks for a quick response.
When you say "in the next version" are you refering to one that is available
online or is it one that you have not released yet? By the way, I am using
the "Stamped" version of win32lib.ew version 55.1 -- is it the latest one?
I *THINK* that some of my fonts are Unicode BUT the problems exist with ALL
fonts; Greek characters are mangled even with Fixedsys and Courier (the
screen font, not Courier New) that are 256 character fonts in which accented
Latin have been replaced with Greek. Incidentally, when I say Greek
characters are mangled, I mean that those characters that kind of correspond
to Latin (e.g. epsilon corresponds to e and alpha to a) are translated to
their Latin counterpart; the others are converted to question marks (?).
I can send you some screen dumps if you think it would help.

I tried some tests with non-TrueType fonts and came up with some funny
results too. More investigation is required. Truetype fonts still seem okay
though.
