Extensive testing with the 4.5 yr old demographic and a netbook turned
up this bug, illustrated by the attached screenshot. In extreme cases,
just entered letters are not visible at all, except in the overview.

Suggest limiting the amount of vertical space the overview uses.

reassign 711642 screen-message
thanks

One day when I grow up I will rename my r-cran-sm passage so its source
packages changes from 'sm' to 'r-cran-sm'.  Right now I still hijack source
'sm' from binary package 'sm' which is forced to use 'screen-message' ...

Hi,

thanks for the report. Indeed it should be fixed; I just have to find
out how to scale a TextView the way I currently scale a label, while
retaining the ability to interact with the widget. Then one can simply
edit the man view.

Greetings,
Joachim
