When I try to load large (>1MB) text files, such as Roget's Thesaurus or calc's texinfo file, demacs crashes. Am I doing something wrong, or is it a problem with demacs? BTW, Vernon Buerg's LIST program has no trouble with these files at all. One other thing: any solutions to demacs's file locking problems that occur when you add the "-9" to SET TZ=CST-9??? The "-9" makes the time correct but screws up something else. This is mentioned in the demacs FAQ, but I have seen statements here that imply the "-9" can be made to work. Thanks in advance. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- E.J.
