Yes, I did read carefully. 100 (source) files, each 100 MByte, stuffed into a single (target, database) file results into that database file being 100*100 MByte. Considering "possibly 200 or more", this easily could result in a single 64+ GByte file. So, in what way was this meant to be a response regarding my concerns? ;) guenther -- char *t="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"; main(){ char h,m=h=*t++,*x=t+2*h,c,i,l=*x,s=0; for (i=0;i<l;i++){ i%8? c<<=1: (c=*++x); c&128 && (s+=h); if (!(h>>=1)||!t[s+h]){ putchar(t[s]);h=m;s=0; }}} ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
