I have been having this problem with Word Perfect 4.1.  I am working on
a file of about 70K, and it seems to have problems with the length.
Sometimes when I save it, it doesnt get save, and then inside the edit
buffer, the end of it gets mangled.  Sometimes it gets truncated, other
times the last few pages get rewritten at the end.

I am working on my master's thesis, so this is a royal pain in the
dairy air.   I havent called Word Perfect yet, will probably do it monday.
But has anyone else heard of this?
