  > It never chokes on huge files
You've never tried to reach the end of a 200MB log file with a cold cache... :P



It can handle files that big no problem. Use the -n switch to supress page numbering.

But with a 200MB file, chances are you will only want to view part of it. Unless you have superhuman reading powers. ;)

Dissect the part you want with some filter (sed, awk, tail, whatever) and feed the result to less.
