Conceptually break the file up into segments, say 8k each, and
always have at most two segments in the current TextEdit record.  If you
start with the beginning of the file, and scroll through it, you
might have the TERec containing
	#1
	#1, #2
	#2, #3
etc.

Needless to say, you have to have a disk scratch file, that you copy 
to the actual file as the segments are dumped.
