[fa.info-mac] Help! I'm being attacked by a Macterminal File!

Well, actually, it's a MacTerminal file I wanted to use as a standard 
MacWrite file (I'm new to this, so bear with me). After saving the file
in MacTerminal, I quit, selected the MacWrite application, and opened the
file from MacWrite. The moment I depressed the mouse button, the disk drive
started whirring. I tried to change one paragraph's fonts. The disk drive 
whirred for about 3 minutes before the change was processed. I tried to save
the file and got a dialog box saying I was out of memory and would have to
save and quit. 

These problems were duplicated each time I tried to enter the file from 
MacWrite. What's the deal? Anyone else fall into the same quagmire as a
MacNeophyte? Please Help!

Thanks  -- Danny
