I was in school today, trying to write a two page essay in OgEdit. When I
got off the first screen on the OmniGo. The OgEdit screen started to
flash, and I could not do anything. To quit it, I had to push the OG "Off"
button (Wierd, huh?). I couldnt exit by pushing the "Exit" button. Whats
going on? Also, one suggestion to Ray Schuler, I know I lost at least 2
articles I wrote on OgEdit by saving it with a filename longer then 8.3.
For instance, I wrote a page of article; and saved it as biosketch.txt
(forgetting the 8.3 limit; used to Win95 & OS/2 & Mac). The OgEdit looked
like it saved the file. Then, I quit OgEdit, and tried to start it up again
and open it, and I did't find it! I was dumbfounded, and then I realized
about the 8.3 limit. Maybe, instead of making the user thing that OgEdit
saved the file; have a dialog saying "File is longer then 8.3"...

Thanks,

Jon
