    Hello, Rob.

    When a user alternate many times right/left arrow on Yes/No Bar
    prompt (customized by me to Sim/Nao Bar) this character is shown
    repeatedly ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿
    ³
    ÚÄÄÄÄÄÁÄÄÄÄÄ¿
    [?] Ler seu correio agora? [ [ [ [ [ [ Sim [Nao]?


    How i do fix it, if can be?

    My noyesbar and yesnobar source files uses Ctrl-A color codes.
    Exemple from noyesbar:

    if_equal
    print "[Nao] Sim "
    else
    print " Nao [Sim]"
    end_if

    Your locale has more total letters than ("[No] Yes"), so add one more '\b' to this line to account for that:
    print "\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\1n\1h\1>"

    I think that'll solve that.

    Yes, worked well. :-)

    Thanks, Rob.
