    UNIX tools use longs for file positioning and don't support files > 4GB.

    Even when it works, the command i gave would've only shown him the last 10 lines. I was expressing my amazement at his need more than offering a valid solution.

          I have a 26GB logfile that was produced by my program. What is the best free text editor to read such a file?? John

              As already mentioned the internal lister of Total Commander handles test files of several GBs without any problem (it's an viewer, not an editor). One of the many wonderful features of the tool :) bart

                  Thanks. I was able to see what I wanted by copying the log deleting it and restarting the program. Through a debug I found out exactly what was causing the problem and it now is fixed... John

No, a replacement for the windows explorer. with (among other things) archiving, filecompare, ftp... Great tool, I couldn't do without anymore. The internal lister was the only tool that opened multiple GB log files in seconds and allowed workable searches in it. http://www.ghisler.com[^] bart
