Please, we do need complete reproduction instructions (and not speculation) as the FAQ asks.
1) How exactly did you read the file in? 2) 'longer' than what? 3) What line ending is this? I've just tried loading a 1000-line 50kb file using the 'Open Script' menu item, and it worked with CRLF, LF or CR line endings. Some guesses are that there are control characters in the file or an encoding problem (what is your locale?).
