OK, hell of a combination, I know. But, here we go.

I recently (ie within the last few months) upgraded to pre14. As usual, Console was docked at the bottom of the screen. I had set the font to White Rabbit several months previously, and had no issues. I had been using pre9.

I had just finished writing some C, and wanted to run gcc (yes, on Windows). So, I brought up the Console.

I got the following image:


The same happened with the Beanshell drop-down. As a result of this, I couldn't do anything with Console.

Why, you ask? Because it wouldn't accept any input. I mashed keys for a few minutes when I realised this, but to no avail.

Today, I checked if there was an update to jEdit, then decided to bring this matter to the fore. In so doing, I checked the settings for Console. I changed the font, then opened it.

And it worked.

I have no idea if this is a Console bug, a pre14 bug, or a "feature" of the font itself. I'm assuming it's a pre14, but it could be a Console + pre14 bug, ie a Console bug that only occurs in pre14 (and yes, that could be considered a pre14 bug).

Any
