Not s7's heap -- it grows as needed. You might run out<br>
of RAM, but 24000 cells is just a megabyte worst case<br>
and won't normally even trigger a GC. If s7 by itself<br>
dies, send me the data file. (I routinely work with<br>
millions of data points, so something else has to be<br>
the culprit -- I edit 1GByte data files in emacs).<br>
<br>
On editing out special chars, you can use s7 to do that,<br>
control-p is 16, control-m 13 etc. If possible, run<br>
your test in a debugger (gdb in Linux/Mac) and send<br>
me a stacktrace.<br>
