copied!<p>Well, it's at least 4M on my box. At that point, I got bored and wandered off. Hopefully the terminal output will be finished before I'm back at work on Monday :-)</p> <pre><code>export b1=A export b2=$b1$b1 export b4=$b2$b2 export b8=$b4$b4 export b16=$b8$b8 export b32=$b16$b16 export b64=$b32$b32 export b128=$b64$b64 export b256=$b128$b128 export b512=$b256$b256 export b1k=$b512$b512 export b2k=$b1k$b1k export b4k=$b2k$b2k export b8k=$b4k$b4k export b16k=$b8k$b8k export b32k=$b16k$b16k export b64k=$b32k$b32k export b128k=$b64k$b64k export b256k=$b128k$b128k export b512k=$b256k$b256k export b1m=$b512k$b512k export b2m=$b1m$b1m export b4m=$b2m$b2m echo $b4m AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA : : : : : : : : : : : : AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA </code></pre> <p>If you're worried that 4M may not be enough for your environment variable, you may want to rethink how you're doing things.</p> <p>Perhaps it would be a better idea to put the information into a file and then use an environment variable to reference that file. I've seen cases where, if the variable is of the form <code>@/path/to/any/fspec</code>, it gets the actual information from the file <code>path/to/any/fspec</code>. If it <em>doesn't</em> begin with <code>@</code>, it uses the value of the environment variable itself.</p> <hr> <p>Interestingly enough, with all those variables set, every single command starts complaining that the argument list is too long so, even though it lets you set them, it may not be able to start programs after you've done it (since it has to pass the environment to those programs).</p>
