- Hi there everybody! I don't know where to post this, so hopefully someone
- will see it here and/or post it to the right place.
-
- Anyway, I need some help with vi (or another editor on the vax). I have
- managed to accumulate a 14 megabyte file (yes, 14MB) in my directory, and
- I'd like to use an editor to strip out the deadwood bytes.
-
- However, when I try to use vi, it hangs while opening the file. Is there s
- vax editor that can handle files of this size?
-
- Thanks in advance,
- Dave Kalin
