I am using the Unicode version of tabSRMM 0.9.9.96, and have a strange problem with templates.

Here is the template I have set up: %I %N %h:%m [%E] %l%M

In the preview window I get this as expected:

   #bash 10:54 [17/07/2005]
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

But after saving the template and applying changes, my message window looks like this:

  Someone's Nickname 03:05 [
blah blah blah

Note the '[', but there is no date and the last ']' has disappeared.

The main problem I seem to have is with %D and %E. I haven't tested every variable, but %U for example seems to work OK.
