   and I have notice that the emacs function 'process-send-string' cannot
   send to the subprocess any strings longer than ~ 760 characters long.

   Does anybody known where that limitation come from ?

EmacsLisp manual says:

  The kernel may fail if you send more characters than it will hold in
an input buffer.  If necessary, use a temporary file, and send a program
to read it.
