Actually, I have heard that the bug is only in TEDINFO structures
within resources that use the "p" field type in the tepvalid
field. This is NOT every resource. Unfortunately, the p field
allows only tos filename characters, so it was used by the
file selector.
**NOTE** I do not have my ST with me, so I cannot try this out
to confirm it. BEWARE!!!
