Yep. Q: How big is the 90th percentile text file? 64KB? That text file fits in some some level of cache and not RAM. An array is just fine most of the time.

Use a different purpose-built editor for those multi-GB text files.
- jen20 3y agoIf you _have _ an editor purpose-built for those files, why not just use it for everything?
- ktm5j 3y agoBecause those editors aren't your preferred editor? I don't really care about being able to edit files that big so that's not going to be the reason why I pick an editor.
- icsa 3y agoA craftsmen has different tools for different purposes. E.g. Text editor Hex editor Source code editor
- jen20 3y agoTurns out there's no need for that when all the good editors support all of those things out the box.
