You should be able to read the file one chunk at a time. For example:
on mouseUp
answer file "the huge file"
if it <> "" and the result = "" then
put it into theFilePath
end if
open file theFilePath for read
repeat until the result = "eof"
read from file theFilePath until return
Do you know for sure what char your return char is and del is set to it?

On OS X (and Linux, I'd think), there's a cammand line utility which
split big files up into files of whatever size/number of lines you
like. It's called 'split'
If you type "man split" into a terminal window, you'll see it's manual.
Best,

What kind of files are they? Text, picts, sounds? And what is their

I think I am in control of the situation - but I did not find a way to

Yep - it's draconian and it's arbitrary. And every time I get riled up about
it I calm down and figure out a way to do what I want without having to
break the limits. Sometimes by realizing that my app really can be better
placed as a plugin stack, in wh

only for instance.

The ten-line limit is only for standalone apps. If you're running in the IDE
there's no limit. Does that help?

You open the file
You read the contents odd the file
You put it into a var or field or customprop
You close the file
You delete the lines in your container
You open the file again
You write that container to the file
You close the file
