I imagine a few of you have discovered this but I just thought I'd raise it
in case Apple feels like fixing it.

MPW does not like very long lines. As example, try editing a Postscript<n>
file created by Clover-F when that file has an Adobe downloaded font.
MPW tries to display a line several kB long and a LONG pause ensues. It
doesn't crash, it just takes time.
