[RTcmix-discuss] Where's that file?

[Brad Garton]

Oh this is fun...

using tcsh/csh, I cannot reset my open files higher than 256!  If
I try ulimit -n 1024, then ulimit -a still shows 256 (as does your
program).  However, using sh/bash I can indeed set it to 1024,
and your program reports it as such.  Going back to tcsh/csh
sets it back to 256 again.
