Last week, I posted a note saying that I was going to remove Easy Access
from my Mac II's system folder, on the advice of the folks at T/Maker;
I was told that Easy Access could be causing some problems with WriteNow.
It appears that T/Maker was correct. The problem that my wife and I had
been having with WriteNow (garbage appearing on the screen when the
"i" key was typed) has not recurred since I removed Easy Access;
the documents we've been editing are well above the size threshold
(7-8 pages) at which the glitch was occurring previously.
So... if you're using WriteNow on a Mac II, and have been having
problems with garbage appearing on the screen when you're entering
text into a not-small document, try removing Easy Access and see if
the problem goes away.
