Pete! Apparently, I was also one of my hopes... because I got past it!

Here's the diagnosis:

There must be a bug somewhere when trying to assign a value to a sequence that is not yet initialized/defined.

I was trying to do something like this:

    data[NAME] = new_name 

and data[] was not yet defined/initialized.

It would be nice to just get an error message like, "You dun goofed, son," instead of a MEMORY VIOLATION ERROR!

I haven't used Euphoria/Phix in a while for anything serious, and I'm coming back to this particular project. But every time I use Edita, I appreciate the little conveniences and the nice functionality you've built into it. NICE JOB!

There are still some suggestions I have for it, but maybe I'll have to do that myself some day.
