help(:all) segfaults comdraw when entered into the comdraw text editor window (the panel at the bottom of the editor). It does not segfault when used from telnet or stdin.

    now it doesn't segfault, it just returns null without doing
    anything.

    This is because the maximum length of a symbol is 4K, and
    comterp uses the symbol table for returning strings on the
    stack. Easy fix is to increase this size. Probably want to
    look at memory mgmt. issues at the same time.
