I am having problems applying labels in Magic. I can bring up the
netlist menu with;

    :specialopen netlist

Then I click the current label button and a prompt appears in the
console, where I can type the name of a label. This prompt looks strange
because there appears to be a character already at the start of the line
(looks like a space).

I type a label and press return. I type another label and press return
twice, but nothing happens in the Label/Netlist window. If I now right
click in the current label button, I can now see the name of the first
label I typed, but it is preceeded by "\n". If I try to place this label
I get an error message;

    Label name contains illegal control character 0xa

Each time I right click the current label button, the labels I entered
are added one by one until I have;

    "\nfirst\nsecond\n\n"

where 'first' and 'second' are the names of the labels I typed. I see
this same behaviour from both 7.2.60 and also 7.3.9 versions running
under Red Hat Linux 9.

Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers,

/.J
