Hello Kamil,

enclosed you will find an updated version that should fix the bug you mention.
Actually this is a quick fix (I am very busy at work right now so it is
difficult to spend time on calcurse...). Anyway, if you want to send me a
better patch I would be happy to include it in next stable release.  The
function to update is apoint_scan (file apoint.c): the item should be loaded
into a dynamically allocated string, whereas for now on it is just a fixed
size buffer.

Please tell me if the enclosed version fixes your problem, and many thanks for
your bug report. Do not hesitate to contact me if you find other bugs!

Regards,
Frederic
