Does anyone have an easy way to display and edit large numbers
of characters in a window?  When using text edit fields, the 
mac tends to need lots of time when inserting or deleteing
characters.  I assume there is a faster way to implement fields
of this type.  All text editors do this.

Please respond by mail.

Thanx in advance
