- I am having trouble getting DEMACS to work reliably on a GRID 1550sx
- under DOS 5. It seems to crash at random in response to some very
- simple errors --- like using a left-arrow command when at the top of
- the buffer or hitting BKSP, BKSP, DEL instead of DEL, DEL, DEL. This
- doesn't always happen, but when it does, locks the keyboard so that I
- must power-down and reboot, usually losing most of my work. This is
- maddening, because DEMACS on a good portable just about makes DOS
- worthwhile.
