Although this is a very rough attempt on locating the problem, this might have something to do with it: on file win32caml/ocaml.c around the line 1319 here is what i found: ... case WM_TIMERTICK: /** Modified by Chris Watford 21 Sept 2003 **/ hwndChild = (HWND) GetWindowLong(hwnd, DWL_USER); if (ReadToLineBuffer()) { int errMsg = 0; char *p, *l = lineBuffer; // Ok we read something. Display the trimmed version while(((*l) == ' ') || ((*l) == '\t') || ((*l) == '\n') || ((*l) == '\r') || ((*l) == '*')) l++; ... I have no idea why it trims empty spaces and the *'s. There may be a good reason for this to happen.. but i did get very confused when this happened to me the first time.
