Here's a much simpler example without colors or fonts.
It breaks probably on buffer overrun.
rtftext =: 0 : 0
When I load too much stuff into a Rich edit control in\line
a form, it gets lost and starts repeating the first\line
part of the text several times over and over.\line
The failing case is when it gets to about 20\line
lines of text. The data has lots of Unicode characters\line
and color changes.\par
Before I go to the trouble of narrowing this down: is\line
there a chance somebody will be able to look at this\line
& fix it, if I get a reproducible testcase?\par\par

text=: ;9 ([EMAIL PROTECTED] ,&":&.> #) <rtftext

pc scan closeok;
xywh 9 6 375 293;cc scscansion richeditm ws_hscroll ws_vscroll;

rem form end;
)
scan_run=: 3 : 0
wd SCAN
wd 'set scscansion *{\rtf1 ',text,' }'
wd 'pshow;'
