We are running up against the number-of-arguments limit allowed on
the command line under the C shell. Is there a way to increase
this limit to a much larger value. Shell files that run properly under
SUNOS4 are failing under IRIX-3.31 with the error
"argument number too large".
Our researchers routinely analyze directories containing many
hundreds of data files using shell scripts to process the data.
Any insight would be appreciated.
