I don't know for sure, but I doubt it seriously, Rob.  In that case, I'd
have to suggest multiple notes fields.  But since one page of notes is all
the user can see on a screen at a time, I wonder if that's not enough?
While I can understand not wanting to have to edit yourself every 80
characters, every 1500 or so (more like 3000 with a 132 column display) with
a simple "continued?" flag might suffice.

It seems to me that if you want to enter more than a screen full of data at
a time on a blockmode device, then you're asking for something untenable.
