Message-ID: <24728@unix.cis.pitt.edu> Date: 6 Jun 90 14:04:01 GMT Reply-To: er225711@unix.cis.pittsburgh.edu (M Kikuchi) Organization: Univ. of Pittsburgh, Comp & Info Sys Lines: 4 I recently upgraded my IIcx to KanjiTalk 6.0.4 (from 6.0.2.4).Now I often get hit with error -42, too many open files, in relativelysimple situations (MPW, HyperCard, and MSWord open) but I NEVER gotthis error before (even in more complicated situations). I assume there is something in this new system which is limiting the number of open files to something much lower than the previous system. What can I do to increase the number of files allowed open??-- ---Martin Thurn thurn@lcl.cmu.edu "Wow! Someone at CMU who doesn't have a bunch of numbers and plus signs in their name!"
