How to increase cmd buffer size?

[Red Squirrel]

I'm trying to debug a program that is causing an error but I need to be able to read all the output. Problem is the cmd bufer only goes up to 999 * 999, that's not enough. Is there a way around this limitation?

I could write the output to file but looking for possibly another alternative.

try using console2 from sourceforge instead

Or just put all of the debugging output into a file instead of stdout.

We're talking billions of lines here (I only need the top maybe, 200k, if an error occurs). To write all that to file would take too long. The program load alone takes about 10 minutes if output all the debug info to screen. (it's a few secs out of debug mode, mind you).

I'll take a look at the Console replacement, looks promising and considering I deal a lot with the command line think it will be very useful.

Sounds like you need to be more conservative with your output...
