For a much more comprehensive list of common problems and solutions, see the NEdit FAQ. The latest version of the FAQ can always be found on the NEdit web site at:
http://www.nedit.org.Below is the list of known defects which affect NEdit. The defects your copy of NEdit will exhibit depend on which system you are running and with which Motif libraries it was built. Note that there are now Motif 1.2 and/or 2.0 libraries available on ALL supported platforms, and as you can see below there are far fewer defects in Motif 1.2, so it is in your best interest to upgrade your system.
DEFECT
Operations between rectangular selections on overlapping lines do nothing.
Work Around
None. These operations are very complicated and rarely used.
DEFECT
Cut and Paste menu items fail, or possibly crash, for very large (multi-megabyte) selections.
Work Around
Use selection copy (middle mouse button click) for transferring larger quantities of data. Cut and Paste save the copied text in server memory, which is usually limited.

Please include the first few lines from Help > Version, which identifies NEdit's version and other system attributes important for diagnosing your problem.
The NEdit developers subscribe to both discuss@nedit.org and develop@nedit.org, either of which may be used for reporting defects. If you're not sure, or you think the report might be of interest to the general NEdit user community, send the report to discuss@nedit.org. If it's something obvious and boring, like we misspelled "anemometer" in the on-line help, send it to develop@nedit.org. If you don't want to subscribe to the Mailing Lists, please add a note to your mail about cc'ing you on responses.
