- When I try to load large (>1MB) text files, such as Roget's Thesaurus
- or calc's texinfo file, demacs crashes. Am I doing something wrong,
- or is it a problem with demacs? BTW, Vernon Buerg's LIST program has
- no trouble with these files at all.
-
- One other thing: any solutions to demacs's file locking problems that
- occur when you add the "-9" to SET TZ=CST-9??? The "-9" makes the
- time correct but screws up something else. This is mentioned in the
- demacs FAQ, but I have seen statements here that imply the "-9" can be
- made to work.
-
- Thanks in advance.
