I see.  Probably this is a bug with the Config widget. I tried  
and was able to create an empty field in the list of display  
columns.

What can you do?  The list of columns is maintained in the  
pybrc.conf file, if I am correct, so it should work to delete  
it. Of course this means that anything in it will be lost.

As an alternative, you could test for f == '' in the program  
file.

It should work to add
	    if f.strip() == '':
		continue
before the call. Hope that works.

Regards,
