Ahhh.. thank you Martin!   "delete a word" is the very thing :)

This happens whenever you use the delete key to delete information
from a character field!

Jason,  to reproduce the problem, do the following:

    At a command line on the AS/400, type:
           SNDMSG MSG('hello big scary world') TOUSR(*REQUESTER)

    Then, before hitting enter, move your cursor to the word "scary"
    and press the delete key a few times to delete the word.  Then
    press ENTER...

    You'll see that the word "scary" WILL be in the text.   This
    happens pretty consistently whenever you use the DELETE key.


Another (new?) problem:

Type in and run this simple CL program:

PGM
             DCL        VAR(&REPLY) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(1)

             SNDUSRMSG MSG('ANSWER THIS MESSAGE WITH A C OR A G!') +
                    VALUES(C G) MSGRPY(&REPLY)

             DLYJOB     DLY(15)
ENDPGM


When you run the program you'll notice that after you've answered the
message, the "II" indicator goes off.  (the keyboard is unlocked)
If you hit ENTER again during that 15 second delay, the emulator
core dumps with an "assertion failed".
