(CAPI bug?) EDITOR-PANE initialized with contents of last EDITOR-PANE in system

Hi, LispWorks

I wrote a simple CAPI test app (source code in attach) which contains  
a EDITOR-PANE. I found when given no :TEXT or (:TEXT "") as initargs,  
it will has contents from last EDITOR-PANE in system.

Just try following form in your already running LW, you will find  
something in it:

(capi:contain (make-instance 'capi:editor-pane))

So how can I start a EDITOR-PANE with just empty text? Or it this a  
CAPI bug of LispWorks?

(All LW platform I can touch has this issue, at least on Mac OS X and  
win32)

No. The documentation clearly says: If BUFFER-NAME is not passed, then the editor-pane uses some existing buffer. Cheers, Edi.
