Hi,

i'm using mc 4.5.54 on  HP/UX 11.00 (without X, with ncurses) and i have encountered
the following Problems:

On the left side i had only a list of filenames the right side was in Quick View mode.
I was pressing Enter to change directorys and moved the cursor over the list on the left side.
 After that the program crashed with the following error message and produced a
coredump (please look at the backtrace):


1HGLib-ERROR **: could not allocate 118517760 bytesdir  8Delete 9PullDn 10Quit
                                                   aborting...

I can reproduce this bug if i like.

There is also another bug that can be reproduced even more easyly. When you are Tree-Mode
and press F3=Forget with the cursor on a  directory name the following message appears:

1H** CRITICAL **: file treestore.c: line 549 (tree_store_remove_entry): assertion `ts.check_name !=
NULL' failed.

Nevertheless mc remains for me a very use- and powerfull aplication....
