| i'm sitting in new york this week, working on a server in california using
| sam -r and it's just great.

Yep, that's what I've seen too.  My only wish is for better latency when
scrolling, perhaps by keeping more of the file in the terminal part.
Also it seems like scrolling backwards draws more network traffic;
read ahead caching?

The other cool thing is that sam can edit bigger files than anything
else I've tried.  But then the other day, under unix, open failed on a
>4GB file.  Before I blindly define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64, is the rest
of the program up to it?  I remember back on the sam-fans list it was
said that it worked on the Cray but not anywhere else.
