That title did intrigue me. All I know about Pizza is that it is so good
you must start to eat it before the point at which it will no longer burn
your mouth. :-)
I am wondering if simple text is a program on your mac that behaves in the
same way as notepad on PC's. I suspect that all that error message you got
meant was that the program attempting to open the .txt could not handle that
big a file. It does not necessarily mean that you can not open it in a
different program without converting it. Unfortunately I don't know how to
do that on a non-windows computer. Since you download and convert things
though, I think you must know how to open different types of files in
different programs. If you use Word, just ignore what it says about
converting or losing formatting and do what you think is best. :-) I always
edit txt files in Word.
Now if someone wants to buy me a Mac when the new OS version with the
included screen reader comes out, I would be happy to learn more about how
to use one. <bg>
