<div dir="ltr">It is running a much newer image (4.5 instead of 3.11), I don't know if it can support the special chars or not, but as I went to test it, I found teh cause of the box4 crash, and a number of other problems:<br><br> - my own "repcopy" script which is running on an hourly cron is getting some error, but leaving the process (squeak iamge) running.

Would a newer image and VM solve this?<br>
<br>
Why do we continue to run on this old image and VM?<br>

That is probably it. Note that St??phane Rollandin (spfa) has just registered<br>
a new account. That is probably showing up on the <a href="http://source.squeak.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">source.squeak.org</a> home<br>
page, and blowing up when the wide string is displayed.<br>
<br>
I see the same thing on <a href="http://squeaksource.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">squeaksource.com</a> from time to time. If we do<br>
nothing, it will probably "fix" itself in a little while (after Stef's<br>
activity becomes old news and scrolls off the home page).<br>
<br>
If the problem does not go away by itself, may need to fix it in the<br>
<a href="http://source.squeak.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">source.squeak.org</a> image, which involves finding the offending WideString<br>
and patching it to be displayable.<br>
<br>
The good news is that we are adding a more diverse range of developers<br>
to <a href="http://source.squeak.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">source.squeak.org</a> :-)<br>
