did a little more checking and it seems to be just in exwc and ed.ex (so far) exw runs ed.ex fine. i think it's related to getting/processing the edited files filename as i get no characters displayed when i manually enter the filename and it bails out immediatly if i put the filename as part of the command string.
I think this has to do with some assumptions made in the backend about the size of a line. The interesting thing about this is that rather than doing the standard thing of truncating input at 80 chars, it appears to be crashing. This general issue is a longstanding one that needs to be addressed...
