Hi techs et al,

   I attempted to edit a couple of my html files just now and editing is
broken.  It will give an edit screen with CSUITE header and nothing else.
All the work disappears.  Attempting to leave via ^X without saving any
changes results in a 0 byte file replacing your html file.  Attempting to
save the blank edit (in hopes the file was hidden somehow) will also
render a 0 byte file. 

   I still had my RCS copy which I restored my document with but not until
I moved it to my home account to edit the RCS version.  Had I moved
to my main IP directory and edited it, I would have lost that file to a 0
byte file.  In my home files directory, I altered the name to just that 
of the particular html file; removing the ,v as I've always done.  It
then will not let you save the new edit under that name.  You have to give
it a new name or lose the edit.

   People should be cautioned not to edit online in their IP directory
until this is fixed.
