If I understand correctly, you told MacWrite that a carriage return signified a
new paragraph, and then handed it a file without any carriage returns (because
they are represented by ^j on Un*x systems.)  So MacWrite tried to make a singl
paragraph, only 98 pages long.  I'm not real surprised it died, you probably
made
some length-of-paragraph counter overflow.
