- CEd is full of these kinds of 'features'! Here are my favourites:
-
- o) There can be text beyond the 1024th column, but your cursor isn't allowed
- to go there...
- o) Replace a string with nothing and you can't undo the replace.
- o) Go to column 761, push cursor-right and you get to column 1024!
- o) Change-Case-Word function stores every converted character as a separate
- undo step.
- o) Word-Wrap creates two undo steps for each wrap.
- o) Load a large text, grab the slider and pull it quickly to the bottom and
- back up again. Often the display stays at the bottom.
- o) Go to the end of a long line and move the cursor. It moves horribly
- slow even on an A3000.
- o) Load a file consisting of only one (very) long line and the display will
- say you've got several lines of text.

- Ain't it nice to have such a feature-filled editor? ;-)
