My comp is PII with 192Mb RAM and 255Mb swap. As my 46 MB file keeps growing up I hit the limit. When opening file of 150Mb size emacs show in minibuffer: Maximum buffer size exceeded and refuse to open the file at all! I added another 1Gb of swap but it did not help. How does emacs decide the maximum size of file it accept? Martin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
