The 32K limitiation obviously is at the root of many problems, 
including that described in my prior message.

You don't say what purpose you have for "displaying text in a window"
but if this is a text editing task then I highly recommend that you 
switch from the toy editor to Win-Emacs, along with my Editi interface
(both included free in ACL Professional).

A new version 3.0 of Editi was recently released, and this provides
capabilities way beyond what is capable with the resident editor
(it is also more novice-friendly, with menus, etc.). Anyone still 
using the toy resident editor is missing out on a lot of power.
