Inform 7 5T18 - Unexpected crashing

[Fein...@gmail.com]

I'm using the new build of inform - on a 2ghz intel Macbook running OS
X 10.4.11

When I'm editing my source in 'contents view' (i.e. I click contents
and choose a book, chapter, section etc of my source to edit by
itself) Inform freezes when I attempt to input text. I then have to
force quit and restart the program.

This does not happen if I'm editing the final section/book of my
project but does with all others.

To put it another way, the sections which crash the program when I
attempt to input text are the ones which have the 'ripped paper'
effect at the top and bottom. The 'Open ended' section (the final
section) as it were, does not cause this error.

I have tried reinstalling the application (including deleting all
libraries/extensions) but this keeps happening.

It doesn't stop me from using Inform but it means I have to navigate a
large source manually which is fairly tedious.

Does anyone know how I can rectify this anomaly?

I have the same problem on my G5 imac. running 10.4.11. However on the
PC this seems to work. I can edit the source with no problems after
surfing
to the appropriate Book, Chapter, Section etc etc.

Have you found a way to fix the Mac OS bug?

Download a fresh blank copy of the BugReport.txt and fill it in.

Send it by email to the OSX contact listed in that file.

I've sent my own description of the problem (which I can reproduce at
will), but you should also put in anything that you find useful for
this bug, as well as follow this method of reporting any other
problems in the Inform 7 Public Beta.
