i think in unix you can use csplit

The solutions above seems accurate to me:<br />

I recommend having empty for /var/tmp or splitting it as said above.<br />
<br />
Or is it possible for you to use emacs since it has no such limiation?<br />
<br />
Best regards.

AIX - VI editor issues

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
