Memory protection (AES 4.1 bug)



Hello,

Here is an AES 4.1 bug description that may help those who don't manage to run 
their Atari with memory protection enabled:

The AES 4.1 fileselector is nice (nicer than the old one) but is buggy, when you
use it to select a file whose path is longer than the box where the path is
displayed the file selector displays only the begining and the and of the path
(it displays dots in the middle of it). If you quit the fileselector in this
state (either with ok, cancel, enter or double click) the AES will do a memory
protection fault, be killed and crash the whole system.
It only crashes when you close it in this state, so if you go to a path to long
for the fileselector path box, all you have to do is to go back to a shorter 
path and close the fileselector there to avoid the crash.

I hope it will help.

Eddy.
