Is GridFlow loaded ? It forces Pd to use UTF-8 (Unicode) on OSX, so that
it produces patches that are loadable on Linux, and so that I can write
accents at all in Linux. Then it also has that side effect, that the
cursor is off, because I couldn't make a complete fix of Pd from within an
external.
The complete fix of character encodings was published at the beginning of
the year, but Miller and Hans don't want to apply it on Pd 42.
I'm betting that there won't be a 'pd-extended stable release' with proper
UTF-8 handling until late 2011. That's why I made this hack last year.
