I didn't notice that one, but I did notice, in the improved editor, that if
you set the max_str longer then MAX_STRING_LENGTH, and that string got
reformatted (and the text was indeed longer), it would crash in
format_text() because of a string overflow (the string it's reformatted to
is only MAX_STRING_LENGTH).
A fix for that would be to either not make strings be able to be longer then
that, or to increase the temp variable's length as necessary.
