You *can* rescue your text, if you have MORE and MEM from the DIY
toolkit. The steps are:

1. Use SEARCH_MEMORY to find a string from your document. Start the
search at 50000 to avoid finding the string you've just entered.
2. Use MORE MEM to inspect the memory. Go to the address you found and
scroll back and forth to get the start and end addresses of the stored
text.
3. Use SBYTES to save it.

It's tricks like that which make me wish that Linux had some of the
features of QDOS. But then if OpenOffice crashes, it normally saves the
file!
