I think this should now be fixed in CVS/snapshot.
That fix was fast. Thanks.
However, I found the other case that the Chinese characters is not
properly shown.
if the name of the icon is
"12345678XXYYZZ"
where XX, YY, and ZZ represent three double-byte characters.
Then XX is correct. YY is incorrectly truncated (1 byte left) and ZZ
is replaced with"..." (of course, no problem with ZZ)
That is, the problem is now on YY.
(My test was on windows snapshot built on 2009-05-03)

Good point; I've now added a delete icon to the "edit scalars"
window.
Sorry, I did not yet find any "delete" funciion for scalars in the
icon view. Do I miss something
