Bug: Crash when editing a multi-line buffer.
Danger: High - Potential for a lot of data loss if the crash happens during a long building session where work hasn't been saved.
Discovered in: AFKMud 2.1.3

editor.cpp

Locate:
editor_data::editor_data(  )
{
   init_memory( &line, &size, sizeof( size ) );
}


Change to:
editor_data::editor_data(  )
{
   init_memory( &line, &size, sizeof( size ) );
   desc = "";
}


I don't know entirely why this would be the case, but since all the fix does is initialize the value then it's a super simple solution to crashing while in the editor. Especially if one has spent a significant amount of time working on something only to have all that lost.
