* Worked in LE's patch for keeping track of whether links occur in an
  underlining context, and if so, restore it when slang color is on and
  a current link is made non-current, thereby actually dealing with the
  longstanding bug discussed in the 1997-05-27 mods (This is just a hobby,
  and I always reserve the right to change my mind! :). - FM
* Mods of LYForms.c and LYStrings.c to deal with form field values too
  long to fit in the line editor's buffer (such as long TEXTAREA values
  which have no newlines in them).  As much of the tail as fits in the
  buffer is offered for editing, with statusline messages explaining the
  situation.  If the tail is modified, it is combined with the unmodified
  head when the form field is made non-current.  The result can be edited
  further by making the form field current again.  If the form has a
  Reset button, it can be used to restore the original value.  The
  vanilla code would crash on buffer overflow (Ugh!  A potential
  security hole.). - FM
