I edit <halvorsen>active.mail in a tedit (invoked from the file browser).  During the edit I ask to browse this file in lafite.  While the folder is being parsed I quit out of TEDIT.  This gives me a file not open errof under LA.READSTAMP.'
'
[bvm 4/29/84': It is virtually impossible for Lafite to gracefully recover from this, and I argue it shouldn''t have to.  This is yet another instance of the need for multiple streams on a single file.]'
