I also made a change to the action.edit to increase the edit window
which for me was way too narrow...

The original has

  [box boltcontent cols=60 rows=16

When I was using a 950px width I set it to

  [box boltcontent cols=80 rows=20 gui=true]

When I moved the page narrower to 900px I had to change it to

  [box boltcontent cols=70 rows=20 gui=true]

Took me a while the other day to find where this was set.  One would
think CSS, but it is actually a textbox so the cols control the actual
width.
