Since patching to 2.01, I have noticed two problems:

1) An incompatibility with the TappyType init that crashes LSP when queried
about auto-saving more than one file if you hit return instead of using the
mouse.  Since this only happens when TappyType (which is really a toy) is
installed, and can be avoided, I'm not concerned about it.

2) A couple times I've had LSP crash when typing letters at a readln looking
for integers.  I'm not sure exactly what the conditions are where this occurs.
This is a little more annoying, but since I only use the Text window for quick
and dirty code to test some other code, it's not very serious.

I also had some problems with 2.0p1 that seemed to be caused by GateKeeper
version 1.1; I just went back to GateKeeper 1.0 and all is fine.  Chris Johnson
(the author of GateKeeper) thinks he may have found the problem and fixed it
in version 1.1.1; I'm waiting to see.
