   My guess is you are not accounting for the input field size which is 60   
   characters.  You can shorten the input field if you want to with the "IN" mci   
   code.  But if you are not leaving at least 60 characters on the same line for   
   input, you are going to see results like you're seeing.   
      
   There is nothing special about that prompt its displayed the same as every   
   other prompt, directly after fsearch display file.  If you think there is a   
   bug I would probably need to see something reproducable in this case.   
      
   ... Isn’t it a bit unnerving that doctors call what they do "practice"?
