Hello All!

I'm using VP 1.0b3 and want to 'blockread' data from STDIN.
I found out that when I try to read blocks larger than 8K (8192 bytes) just
8192 are read and nothing more.

Sometimes even less bytes (512?) are read although there should be more data.
How come?

Is this an OS/2 limitation or something VP related?

Greetz,
        Udo
