Hello Zsh maintainers,
in https://bugs.debian.org/807836 it was discovered that the Zsh builtin "unlimit" has potential unforeseen side-effects. An easy to reproduce case for the problem is documented in https://bugs.debian.org/807836#30 The problem here is that unlimit sets the maximum input size to s.th. that is by far out of the feasibility of the hardware being used. This results in breakage of programs that reuse that capability for their own processing. I contact you to ask if that Zsh behaviour of "unlimit" is actually by design or if this is a bug which should be fixed. If the former i ask if the documentation of the "unlimit" builtin can be extended to inform users that the usage of "unlimit" has potential unforeseen side-effects which might break valid code. Thank you in advance. kind regards, Thilo
