I have been using emacs-18.55 on multiple platforms (hp, suns, ps2 ...)
and I have notice that the emacs function 'process-send-string' cannot
send to the subprocess any strings longer than ~ 760 characters long.

Does anybody known where that limitation come from ?

It is sort of anoying because when you use packages such as cmulisp, you cannot
do a 'compile region' or 'compile defun' of function of decent size.

Thanks, Tran Le.
