5000 ****

**** too big truncated 4340  (5000 is not > 4340 !!!!)

** when offset = 0, size must not = end, but must be one greater  !!!!

end seems to be the only thing consistently correct

++ displayed size is not same as entered size   !!!!

+++ can't ever enter these sizes at all  !!!!

!!!! == problem.
