Hi, I know this is a big ask but I have an account on a linux machine with a ulimit on files created is 125MB. This means any large files that I attempt to dcc lead to file size exceeded error. I contacted the admins but they said I was free to split files but that they would not change the ulimit. As you might have guessed, I don't know any programming languages. So is there any version of irssi that can split files as it downloads them, I understand resuming would probably be impossible. Any skilled c programmer wanna try doing it as a project? or indeed point me towards the files I might need to change and perhaps give us some hints. I went through the source, found dcc.c, and well I presume thats where I should be changing things. Basically help is what I'm after here, be that a little or a lot. Thanks for anything you come up with. John
