Subject: Reading portions of large files
Date: Thu, 9 Jan 2003 10:45:06 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <OF405BFE8A.A891E365-ON85256CA9.0055ECAB@spgdag.ca> (raw)

Hello,

I have very large files, sometimes over 1G, from which I would like to edit
very small portions, the headers or trailers for example.  Emacs won't open
those files, it complains about them being too big.  Is it possible to
edit, and save back after editing, only small portions of such files.

Thanks,

Gérald Jean
