is there any way you guys can fix webster so that it doesn't time-out or
freeze up and then exit whenever you try to look up a word that is long and 
undefined, but has lots of words that are similar to it and defined?

try looking up "streetwalk"
or just "streetwa" will fuck it up

also... would it be too much to ask to have an xmh editor that not only has
word-wrap as you type, but also when you go back and edit... something with
permanent soft and hard returns is difficult i guess...oh well
