I agree that the limits are a bit arbitrary and I have removed them in
31DEC06.  I guess it was assumed that 180 pixels is pretty large for
the widths.

You say that IMMOD "crashes" when you run it - do you mean it will not
start with FWIDTH parameters that are large enough or that it does
something else?  If so, please provide details - e.g. inputs and
messages.
