[Rd] Rgui.exe: bug associated with non-ASCII characters

[Simon Urbanek]

I think it was just a really confusing report (it took me a while to parse it), but I suspect the issue the poster tried to raise was the fact that <Ctrl><R> without selection apparently submits an incomplete line if non-ASCII chars are involved. All the steps 1-5 were correct behaviour, but 6 (submitting a line without selection) was not since it truncated the line at the non-ASCII character.

Cheers,
Simon
