- I know that Chris Wysocki released a Think Class Library replacement that
- allows files larger than 32K to be edited. The source is available via ftp
- from (I think) ftp.rutgers.edu. As well, there are commercial products
- (PEP?) to overcome the problem. And, best of all, I hacked together some
- code that does the job, though the results are still a little quirky.
