How to increase line buffer

How to increase line buffer, We are trying to create a file with single line of size greater than 4096 bytes, But we are not able to do so.

Re: How to increase line buffer

I presume you are referring to vi ?

If yes, currently I don't think you can.

The previous limit was 2046.

The size of the variable ''LBSIZE'' on ex_tune.h was changed to 4096 i.e #define LBSIZE 4096 /* Line buffer size */ but that's it's upper limit as I understand it.
