 TIO| I'm running into a problem where if 2qwk! tries to open a message
    | larger than 45k it crashes into the monitor or hangs.

Ahh, a question I *can* answer.  :)  The editor's limit is 525 lines,
which is up from the 444 found in everything before version 2.0, and
the scrollyreader's limit is 43k (I used to know how many lines that was
from testing -- 600 roughly on the file I was checking).  Which explains
why > 45k would cause a crash; it can't handle stuff that big.  Remember
that the program resides in and uses the standard 128k RAM...
