  • Issue listing very big files

    From Kim Heino@2:222/2 to Kishpa@beholderbbs.org on Sun Feb 10 17:17:44 2019
    a very big file is listed with an erroneous size in BBBS while the
    Operating System is listing it with the correct size.

    BBBS uses 32 bit integer for file size. It wraps to zero on 4294967296.

    8897599796 - 4294967296 - 4294967296 = 307665204 = 293MB.

    Sorry, this is not yet fixed on today's release.
