Ok, no problem, but before I do that maybe it is worth mentioning the
following, in case it matters.
I have all the dependencies required to compile/install MD installed
through MacPorts (as described in http://www.naiznoiz.share-a-book.com/?p=27)
, but I did not install the gtksourceview package(s), as MD seems to
run without it. Until a while ago, MD reported that this package was
not installed during the configuration step, but recently this does
not happen anymore, so I assume it is not a requirement. Is this true?
Could this be related?
Thanks for pointing the location of the file with the typo. I changed
this in my local checkout, and the warning is gone. But indeed, it
does not solve the selection problem. So if the above is unrelated as
well, I'll file a bug report.
FYI, I thought that maybe the cause was that Lucida Grande is not a
monospace font (I'm not a font expert, but I guess I'm right), so I
changed to Courier New, in the preferences, and the problem remains as
well.
