Yes, that's it!
I downloaded that .ram file from:
http://www.slp3d.com/ram/slp3d.ram
If I open it using File -> Open, the browser crashes. However, after
editing the file and putting a carriage-return on the end, it works!
I'm extremely mediocre at C coding... would it be pretty simple to
test for that condition and either insert a carriage-return or code a
workaround?
