This is only a problem in 64-bit versions, because in 32-bit        versions an unsigned long int will never exceed 8 hexadecimal characters.              Thanks for the report; I'll get it fixed.              Andrew              --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20180707        * Origin: Phoenix BBS * phoenix.bnbbbs.net (1:320/219)       SEEN-BY: 1/19 123 15/2 16/0 120/544 123/130 131 132/174 203/0 221/0       SEEN-BY: 221/1 6 360 226/17 227/114 229/354 426 1014 240/5832 249/206       SEEN-BY: 249/317 261/38 280/464 5003 5555 292/854 317/3 320/119 219       SEEN-BY: 322/0 757 342/200 460/58 633/0 267 280 281 412 509 640/1321       SEEN-BY: 640/1384 712/848 3634/12       PATH: 320/219 221/1 640/1384 633/280 229/426           |
