- Subject: vi "W10: Warning: Changing a readonly file" on large read-write file
When attempting to edit a *writeable* file of "zero" lines but 53 MB in size
(no newlines), vi appears to hang. Ctrl-C is followed by the response
W10: Warning: Changing a readonly file
following which it appears that one is editing a new file. Quitting without
writing succeeds.
cygwin 1.5.12-1
vim 6.3-1
Cheers
Michael
