Hi Harald,

OK, what if:
1. Quick solution:
I put one more button on this dialog, and then if clicked it would open
another dialog with the fonts set to let's say "Courier New 10" and the edit
box to enter the message only. After OK on the second dialog the message
would be put back in the commit dialog.

2. Proper solution:
I put one more button on this dialog, but it would open the text editor of
your choice, where you would put text any-way-you-like, and when closed I
retrieve the input text and place as a log message. This is more tricky, it
would require to provide the setup for the editor path etc. Unless we
assume/fix it to Notepad...

For the 60 characters problem I would think of putting the CaretPosition
readonly box somewhere (next to the "Do not recurse" checkbox?), so as you
type you will see where you are. I don't see it correct to put the scroll
bar or any limits (different peoples have different needs), but it seems OK
to put the information about caret position.

BR,
Jerzy
