Hi, Adam! > I did use the large file option when I compiled mc, i could see the 4gb > file with no problems.
Your original message didn't mention 4gb files. It mentioned a file slightly below 4gb that mc could not view and a file slightly above 4gb that mc could view (but we don't know if mc just shows the file's size minus 4gb). > I suspects its a problem with the contents of the file (its a dgdump file > that was ment to be cpio). It should be easy to determine. Shift-F3 calls the viewer without checking the contents of the file. On the other hand, you could try to open another file 3.7gb long. You can use a sparse file to avoid filling your hard drive with zeroes: dd if=/dev/null of=bigfile bs=1M seek=3700 Actually, I tried to view the resulting file with the CVS version of MC and got the same error, so your assumption about the file contents is probably wrong, but you can check anyway - finding another bug won't hurt. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Mc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
