From "release.txt":
- Sometime, when biew-Win32 is running under WinNT-4.0 (SP4-5) and
system perform swapping after quitting of biew You may receive GPF.
- If you have selected 'Use MMF' option in biew-Win32 and are viewing
file biew.ini, that after leaving biew you get GPF.
- 'CPU performance' of biew-DOS32 (aka djgpp) doesn't work under Win98
and may crash such systems.
