i figured since you're planning on releasing soon, i'd send this over now that 
i found out how to reproduce it ;)

method:
- edit a file
- shrink the terminal to a short width (scroll the text you want to 
search/replace for off the right side)
- do a search/replace, and search for some text that is completely off the 
screen, the replacement text doesnt matter
- when highlighting the text to be replaced, the display is a little funny ...

example:
nano doc/nanorc.sample
shrink terminal to ~50 chars wide
search to replace '-nanorc' with nothing

the output will look something like this:
before: ## Please note that you must have configured nano$
during: ## Please note that y-nanorc have configured nano$
