Okay, thanks for trying.  I updated to "dev.6 with the patch," but
I still have "shifting" of the characters as I move the cursor up
and down over the selections in the pop-up.  You must move over the
selection list; just expanding the box is not enough.

I tried both with screen running, and without, but I have the problem
either way.  It is not as bad as with dev4, but if I run the cursor
over _arufarufa_, the characters become unintelligible.  With dev4, the
background behind and to the right of the pop-up "shifted" even on the
last line.  Perhaps it's related to how the characters for drawing the
box are chosen?

Finals are over with.  Anyway, I write new questions every year :-)
