2041 files in Vladimir's example are included. Probably 7 are stdin, ... etc.
And I claim that this is a Windows-only problem that doesn't appear on Unix. ;-)
well, it has been a problem there (till the number was jumped there; i clearly remember such problems a few years ago); also, fabrice investigated the problem years ago and provided solutions but as usual his patches were never included in the code base so no wonder that the problem creeps up again ... I'm pretty fed up with these windows rants and 'no problem on unix' kind of crap ... and i also much disliked the tone of mails posted to the lua list about this problem suggesting that it's a windows problem etc etc and suggesting that it's near to impssible to compile something on windows ... a fact that is proven wrong by fabrice and akira (anyhow, it's no problem to macro program around the problem, either by using immediate flushing (if remember right one solution was to close 1-page docs afterwards because it's the multipage docs that complicate things but i dunno what's left of that patch) and/or do a multipass job) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
