Smultron Text Auto-Wrap Not Working Correctly with Snow Leopard

September 7th, 2009 Leave a comment Go to comments

Ran into a minor but annoying glitch with the Open Source Smultron text editor after upgrading to Snow Leopard. Word wrap doesn’t work correctly after the update. Text lines are shift one character to the right hiding the first character of each line outside of the left border. Forcing the first character back inside the window causes the rightmost character to be lost. This didn’t happen when using Smultron under Leopard.

Unfortunately, the lone developer decided to stop work on it earlier this year. So, I may be looking for another lightweight text editor for the Mac soon.

    This appears to be fixed as the developer have released a new beta version (10.6B) of Smultron that addresses this issue.

    Thanks for the ti!. Just downloaded the 10.6b release to give it a spin.
