Well, that would explain why it didn't get removed from
distributions! 2 glitches out of 2 million installs (<-random
number), and it is the official text editor for Gnome.
I suspect a third person probably had a glitch, and he fixed it -
which is why no one else has ever had a glitch with it. ;-)
I've used it for many years myself and use it pretty much daily
still and have never had it corrupt anything.

I use gedit frequently, and at one time (maybe 2 years ago) I had it
corrupt a file (multiple pastes scattered throughout the file), but
since then I have not had a re-occurance, I do suspect that this bug
(which might be WM dependent) has been fixed
That makes 3, and thats much more recent than my last session which was
at least 4, maybe 5 years back. Your description, Peter, fits it to a T.
Now y'all are making me nervous! Now what did I do with my backup tapes...
