Text Disappears?

I just downloaded the demo, so I am most definitely a newbie, but this just weird. When I open a text file that is already existing, the text initially displays just fine, but when I try to edit it, all but a few hundred characters at the end of the file disappears. At that point, as I type new characters, characters from the beginning of what is displayed begin to disappear. One character gone for each character added. I tried to save the file to see if the info was really gone for good, but the demo won't let me. I also tried creating a file from scratch and, sure enough, when I get several lines into it, all of a sudden the initial text disappears. Any clue what's going on?

    That's why it's called a Demo.... ;)

    Read the "Demo Notes" file included in the download.

    Read instructions? What, are you crazy? :-)

    Actually, I read that file name "Demo Notes" as being another sample file and I didn't give it second thought. Now, if was called readme...

    I know.... Crazy to think that useful information might actually be in the notes/documentation sometimes.... ;)
