Don't you need StrongED 4.70a14 on the Pi 4, if you have 4GB RAM? Otherwise it does indeed complain about a lack of RAM.

Thank you Steve for that.
I went to the StrongEd page and at first could only find 4.69 but clicking
on the test release I have now downloaded 4.7
I have now successfully eited the obey file.
I was using the version installed on the 4te2 by R-Comp.
It seems strange that R-Comp do not install version 4.7...

R-Comp are aware of the issue, but as you discovered 4.70a14 is offically
a test version, and I think the author does not want it on more general release yet. So Catch 22.
Why do I get the error:
Not enough memory
when trying to edit the !Run file in Bernard Veasey's !MyComp banner app?
Trying to erase or insert the supplied text gives the error.
A plain text file works just fine if that helps.

"Zap 1.49 (13 Jun 2020) rick-07" works fine on my Raspberry Pi4 with 4GB
of memory. It edits !MyComp.!Run perfectly well without any problems.

Thank you Bernard
I will haave to get to grips with Zap
I have got used to StrongEd's ways and was hoping
to stay with it. Version 4.7 still gives not enough memory with trying to replace text I'm afraid... Oh well....

StrongED 4.70a14 does resolve the "Not enough memory" issue on machines with greater the 2GB. It is, however, not available directly from the StrongED website but is at the link below.

I would suggest sticking with StrongED: Zap has many crashy issues all of
its own, and isn't being actively developed because there's no will amongst the RISC OS community to support an effort to clarify its licence status.
StrongED, on the other hand, already has a clear, Open licence *and* an active maintainer. The latest version does work on the Pi 4, but isn't yet visibly distributed as I *think* there are some other unrelated issues to track down amongst the new features compared to 4.69 (see discussions on the StrongED mailing list passim).
If 4.70 is still crashing for you, then either you haven't got a14 (see David's link) or you should report it to Fred with the necessary steps to reproduce the problem, so that it can be investigated and fixed.
I'll leave the question of why 4.69 is being included on a disc image for a Pi 4, when it is known not to work well on that hardware platform... :-(
