It'd be really nice if there was documentation for all the errors that
pop out of the debug ROMs.  My particular issue is the those
generated from within Field.c during Gremlins.  A further gripe is
that the "field.c" doesn't display the number of the field object
and you aren't necessarily sure which object has the problem.

A few weeks ago we figured out why we were getting 
"Insertion Point" errors.   The reason was that the field wasn't tall 
enough for the font.   The LED font requires at least 19 pixels, the 
largeBold font requires 15 pixels and the large font 14 pixels.  
we had readonly fields on a couple of our screens that were a pixel
too short.   Gremlin's occasionally tapped on these fields and we
only figured it what the problem was by accident (or luck...).

Our new confusing error message from a Gremlin run is
"Invalid Word Wrapping Info...."   This occurred one place in a
Gremlin run, and since it is non-fatal we clicked [Continue] and it
continued on without reoccuring (so far for another 400,000 events).

This problem probably occurs in a multi-line field with the cursor at
the start of the second line.  That's the primary field on this screen, 
which also has one readonly field and lots of buttons (it is a keypad
form, used in many places in our software, so it gets a lot of
attention from Gremlins).

Does anyone understand this debug error message, and have any
suggestions as to what might trigger it or how it might be occurring?
