Last year I mailed about a script that would sometimes work, and sometimes fail with the message "csplit: memory exhausted".
This is a bug in the csplit utility. I found discussion of it and mention of a fix, and downloaded the latest version I could find (in textutils-2.0.21-1). The bug is still there (I've reported it), but there is a workaround: don't pipe input to csplit, but write a temporary file and run csplit on that instead. luke -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
