problem vi'ing large files
2007-12-24 21:21:00
I've got a problem vi'ing a large file. I get an error of "Tmp
file too large" and I just can't seem to get around it. The file is around
163 meg in size. I've tried setting the default tmp directory using the
EXINIT var to a partitoin with gig's free and it still has issues (export
EXINIT='set directory=/u06/attrep/tmp').
This is a solaris 8 box.
Someone did post a similar question, but only posted that it might
be a bug in sun's vi.
Any thoughts?
thanks,
Paul
