Not true. EDLIN reads in the file in chunks. Edit what you want in the
first chunk, use the W command to write it out, use A to read in some more....

I don't claim it's easy. But it works. And, if you issue the E command to exit,
it does copy the rest of the input file across.

The person who inquired could look at an editor called the Technical Editor,
available on SIMTEL20 as TE25.ZIP (not sure of the directory). It's
shareware, $35 ($45 with source). It will edit files up to 32MB.
