I'm trying to open a 10Gb file on windows. I've installed the 64bit version, so the file size isn't an issue from that side. However, I see that the vim process uses more and more ram until it stopped at about 5.9Gb (I have 6 total). Is there a way for me to open this file?
Note: If anyone is interested in WHY I'm doing this, I need to open the file, figure out how many lines it has, and write that number in the first line of the file. In this case I need to write "231478708" plus a return. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
