Dear all,
I am facing strange problem. I have a directory test1 in which there
are number of files. I am running following command and see some problem
here.
$ ls test1/* | wc
2745 2745 32724
So total number of charcter if all filename is written on command line is
32724. Now I create another file.
$ touch test1/a
$ ls test1/*
bash: /bin/ls: Invalid argument
ls does not work in this case. Is there any limitation on total number of
charcters in command line? How could we change it to higher limit?
I am using cygwin 1.5.5.1 and fileutils-4.1-2.
regards
Vinay
