My elvis dies on large files. I tried to edit a text of 2 MB size. Elvis says after a while error reading back from tmp file After that I recceived a mail concerning file recovery using elvisrecover. I have 386bsd 0.1 Patchkit 2 Elvis is on PL 1. What can I do ?! Any help available ? Or what editor should I use instead (but please: something different than emacs, it's too large). Preferred is something like vi ! Of Course !
