Actually to clarify this point, this example didn't work with ANY size
input file on the machine I just tested it on (my home machine), but
neither did the original one with sed that DID work before on my machine
at work. So I don't know what the deal is there. May be a bug that's
fixed in the 2.2.15 kernel. Both systems are RedHat 6.1 systems with the
latest gnome-helix update. The only significant difference I can think of
is one is 2.2.15 and the other is a 2.2.14 kernel.
