Switching the viewer Raw/Parse mode stopped working

[hkmaly]

Since 4.8.9, the switching between Raw/Parse? mode is not working for me.

On "normal" file (that is, text file which probably lack any magic) pressing F8 make both the content and filename completely disappear.

On gzipped file, if started the view in "raw" mode, pressing F8 will change to "parse". Additional pressing of F8 will change the text on the bottom bar, but doesn't change the view (it only resets position). If starting the view in "parse" mode, pressing F8 will not work from start (although first press will change the top status line) - again, the bottom bar changes but view doesn't.

I suspect it's related to [2968].

(I first noticed on this version of mc, then tried other versions and 4.8.8 worked normally while 4.8.9 didn't. Also 4.8.12 didn't.)

I meant #2968, not [2968] ...

[hkmaly]

Also possibly related to #2090 ... which reminds me I should clarify that by "opening in raw mode" I mean opening with the "last used mode" set to "raw", not the shift-F3 version ... if I open the file with shift-F3, it behaves the same way as normal file - that is, it shows the raw version and when I press F8 both file content and top line disappears.
