Moving from 6.6.1 to 8.0.0 Handlers vanished

[panagiotis merakos]

Camm,

 Are you on Windows? It might be the case that some non-printable chars
where added to the script editor if you copied the scripts from LC 6.x and
pasted them into LC 8.

I would suggest you submit a bug report and attach your stack that exhibits
the problem.

Best,
Panos
