0003381: Crash when viewing item name that is too long to display on screen

Notes
(0013244) Tweakd (reporter) 2010-10-07 14:45	Oh i forgot to mention I'm using the Ironhand tileset.

(0013366) yeesh (reporter) 2010-10-14 08:52	You know, in the past few days I've also had the game crash suddenly on two separate occasions when I was looking around (with 'k') at various squares containing items/body parts/blood. I'm using Ironhand's graphics pack and True Type. I'm going to start saving after siege battles.

(0013368) yeesh (reporter) 2010-10-14 12:53	OK, I feel like I've made a discovery here. Because I'd crashed with this bug, I had to replay my siege. Strangely (or not?) this time it came as six ambushes one after the other instead of a siege, but either way there were plenty of blood spatters. So I saved and found the square that makes DF crash whenever I look at it. There's a spattering of dwarf blood, but I think the problem comes from this: "A spattering of Azstrog Screamevils the Spidery Cave of Confederacy's goblin blood" . On my normal 1/3 text view, the words don't quite fit in the window, but then DF crashes immediately anyway. What I discovered is this: If, before I look at the square, I hit tab a few times to get the view where the text takes up 2/3 of the screen, I can look at the square without any trouble. The words fit, and DF doesn't crash. If while looking at this square, I hit tab to change the view, DF immediately crashes. The crash I'm talking about is just a windows popup: Dwarf Fortress.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. I am using Ironhand graphics with the defaults (which seems to be TTF). DF .31.16.

(0014986) Dwarfu (manager) 2011-02-04 08:02	Nevermind, I just re-read yeesh's comment that TT is default for Ironhand, making this a dup.
