I'm glad you agree ;-)
Please send a test case. The following script illustrates what is
supposed to happen, though apparently it is not happening in all
cases.
nulldata 601
list L
string S
loop i=1..600 -q
series longseriesna$i = normal()
L = L longseriesna$i
S += " longseriesna$i"
endloop
ols const L
ols const @S
The first ols, using the list, is OK. The second fails with
"Maximum length of command line (8192 bytes) exceeded".
But knock the number of variables down to 500 (!) and the second
version works too.
Allin.
