Re: [hatari-users] Hatari 2.1 crashes when closing the preference window on Mac OS 10.13.3

[Sebastien Laborie <sebastien-laborie@xxxxxxxxx>]

 

 

Well... I just switched my OS langage to english and.... the crash disappeared :)

Switched back to French and have the crash again...

 

So guys, it seems there is a bug somewhere in strings manipulation in the preference window (native UI) and that bug occurs (or not) depending on the langage...

 

Is there any French developer working on Hatari? :)
