Hello,

I have found the following problems with running the latest eric5 release on
Mac OS X 10.6.4.

- Font metrics problems. Text point size is tiny upon startup, after zooming
in four or five levels text is readable but display is a bit screwed up.
There are large spaces inserted before opening parentheses and after closing
double quote. The biggest problem is with quotes: when typing a quoted
string the cursor appears to be one character to the right of where
characters are inserted (looks like you are typing outside the closing " but
the keystrokes appear inside).

- Project -> Version Control -> Show log browser. When using this dialog, if
you try to view a diff the child dialog appears behind and totally obscured
by the parent log browser. The diff dialog remains underneath with focus.

- Display corruption in mercurial diff display. See:
