Folks,

I've been off the list for a while, and I guess I'm paying for my
truancy.  Anyway, this AM after several hours of performing and
recording complicated computations in an NB file, I discovered that a
MDNM command had slipped its final command bracket which had instead
become a right arrow.  All the text beyond that point does not come
up on screen no matter what I've tried.  The file on disk is just
fine (I checked w/ Norton Utilities).  Any ideas?  For the record, NB
was performing all manner of weird stunts at about the same time,
including locking up, and when I reset, quit, and saved files as
*.tmp, one of them also refused to come up, no matter how I called
it, and instead caused NB to freeze again.

Many thanks.

Tom Mayer
