While we're griping about GTK, can someone please tell me why every time
I hit + in GAIM or another GTK app, it renders as a tiny superscript plus
sign? Why do I always get these weird "binary character" graphics in the
course of normal IM conversations with a small amount of copy/paste? Why
does copying text out of a syntax-highlighting editor result in broken,
non-newline-terminated colourized text showing up in the GTK edit box I'm
pasting into?
