Nope. ee22cs5 was unusually stable (as opposed to usually unstable ;) ) for
an eecs release so I decided to leave it alone.

Please elaborate - I have had no crash problems using search.

The current bugs (off the top of my head) are:

* Search and replace sometimes doesn't work on the first attempt while
searching in a selection. It doesn't crash eecs on my machine and it always
works second time around.

* Long filenames don't work in NT - This is a limitation of the dir95.e
library I use. I might see if I can get it to work with exw and exu (by
eliminating uses of dos_interrupt) at some point in the future. No promises
though.

* Weird things sometimes happen with opening-from and saving-to substed
drives in a Windows dos-box.

Check that you don't accidentally hit the Insert key when using backspace,
it is only one key over... I do this myself quite a lot. blink

Otherwise, could you describe the exact conditions it happens under?

Given that the user base of Euphoria is probably around 20,000 folks these
days, and given that there's you, me and a couple of others (to my
knowledge) that use eecs...

<Thinks for a bit>

Ooh. I have a 0.02% coverage of the Euphoria world. Yowzer! :) :)

PS It makes a damn fine hexdumper even if you don't use it as a Euphoria
Editor... ;)
