You may also try "putty".

Just make your terminal wider and then start golded. It will use whole window
width unless you use "Dispmargin" parameter in your config. As for quotes,
they will be broken down to "Quotemargin" columns.

Sure. That's your choice. :) I just want to tell that GoldEd was designed to
work with one byte encodings and UTF-8 may work incorrectly.

I'm working on some refactoring now in charset conversions now. When that is
done, then iconv integration will be very simple.

Got it. What is weird, last commit fixed issue for one sysop and broken it for
you.

Could you try to build from commit 372220588c6f17cd3f709dcb721a9144169d988c ?
It was before all my changes. If it will have same behavior, then it's
something wrong with setup on your side and we'll try to figure that out.

Best regards,
Vitaliy Aksyonov.
