I have just noticed something, which might be important (and find very
strange)!
If I have entries like this:

Nathan Hüsken|nabble2@lonely-star.org

(not many spaces at one place), the problem does not appear.
It only appears when I have a lot of spaces in the entry ...

This is strange.

You can see the effect in the "viewer_ex" example bundled with cdk.
Create a directory with umlaut and losts of spaces in its name, Example:

mkdir "ü                                             berhaupt"

No open the viewer_ex example and go over that directory.
Can you confirm my problem?

Thanks
Nathan
