I can see the following problems (found by trying):
1) When entering a directory which contains a newline the
pathname displayed in the panel frame is truncated to
the newline character. For example:
"/tmp/\np" is displayed as "/tmp/"
"/tmp/pavel\n" is displayed as "/tmp/pavel"
"/tmp/pa\nvel" is dispalyed as "/tmp/pa"
2) When the marker is on a directory entry which contains
newline and Alt+Enter is pressed I get the following in
the prompt widget:
"\np" -> "\p"
3) When copying a directory with newline in its name
the newline is replaced by space character in the
target directory name.
Maybe there are others too.
