It may have something to do with what shell you are running under.
I ran it under a korn shell(MKS) w2k and id one at 1590 characters and had
no problem.  From some other emails I have seen, the shell may allow only so
much to happen.

        What are you running under?

Wags ;)

Subject: split error


Hello all,
  Can anyone explain why this fails?  I have done a google search for 'Split
loop at', and turned up nothing.  If the initial array
stays under 256, all is fine, but anything beyond 255 (as far as I have
tested) dies.  Is this something to do with bit size?

%perl -e 'for(0..256) { $s.=chr($_) } for(split(//,$s)) { print }'
Split loop at -e line 1.

TIA,
Shawn
