If you are using 2.3.2 and it is working for you, then there isn't
really any reason to downgrade. Since NEdit does not, to my knowledge,
use any of the widgets of the 2.2 and 2.3 series, then you shouldn't run
into many of the problems encountered with these versions. 2.2 was
particularly unstable, however. I have not had trouble with using 2.3
myself, but I'm also careful to only stick with the 2.1 set of widgets.
NEdit has worked reliably for me with 2.3.
