* [9fans] sam - string too long @ 2003-11-11 18:24 Matthias Teege 2003-11-11 20:49 ` Scott Schwartz 2003-11-12 11:13 ` Boyd Roberts 0 siblings, 2 replies; 3+ messages in thread From: Matthias Teege @ 2003-11-11 18:24 UTC (permalink / raw) To: 9fans Moin, I use sam under freebsd and try to load 200 files with "B < find . -name '*.tex'". Sam gives me "string too long". Ok, but sam `find . -name *.tex' from the command line work perfect. Is that a limit in the sam command window?
