Hi all,
        I hope this isn't a FAQ, but here goes:

I'd really like for our users to be able to make posts with
more than 253 lines, without having to resort to giving them
access to vi (or somesuch).  Anyone have any easy tweeks to
the code to fix this, without hosing something else?

Thanks in advance,

Scott
