Ah ha! Yes, I see what I've done there - I moved from character IO to
String IO - and the string is \0 delimited - I'll fix it up tomorrow.

Indeed, the reason being that the entire Browse menu is something I
never use, hence none of the code in that has been touched beyond just
making sure it still works at some basic level. All the code has been
moved into a file called Legacy.c and I've put a comment at the top
saying I don't have a clue what its doing. I'm hoping that Hoogle
<http://www.haskell.org/hoogle/> will be able to do this by version 4,
so I'm just waiting til then.

If there is anything that is really important to people, let me know
and I'll try to fix it - but I probably won't make any polish
improvements to it.

Thanks

Neil
