hi list,


it seems p9p sed has line lenght limit at about 1024 bytes.
however, instead of crashing and burning, or returning some error, it just 
happily spews truncated output.


i've just been bitten by it :D

you speed through the eerie nothingness of space
you circle 'round the Moon
and journey back
to face the punishing torment of re-entry
