I was wondering how code already written under the assumption that the return value from lseek() and fseek() will fit in a long(32 bits) is going to handle such large files. Is BSD4.4, which is now in alpha testing(?), available via anon-ftp anywhere yet? -- Bruce Momjian | 830 Blythe Avenue root%candle.uucp@bts.com | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026 + If your life is a hard drive, | (215) 353-9879(w) + Christ can be your backup. | (215) 853-3000(h)
