Terminal Buffer Overrun, Can You Change the Size?

Hi-
I frequently use BBEdit or the Text Editor to write a bunch of text (SQL, scripts, etc.) and then COPY / PASTE that into the Terminal. If the block of text I copy is longer than about 1024 characters, I hear a beeping sound from Terminal and it drops characters from the middle of the PASTE operation.
My guess is that Terminal has a buffer of about 1k and when I copy large chunks of data, I overrun the buffer and it sounds the beep to tell me that. Then it just keeps pushing data in from the COPY / PASTE; although, some characters end up missing because of the overrun.
Is this correct? Is there a way to change the buffer size?

Yes. Duplicate your book first in case of issues with text reflow ( depress the command key and press d to duplicate) then select the book, click on themes and choose the same theme and the new size

  • Switcher ?Can you change the size of the screen resolution on the Macbook?

    I'm really interested in buying a Macbook. This will be my first Mac. I love the way they look and feel. I'm concerned with the size of everything on the Macbook. The overall size of the fonts in applications such as word, or safari was too small for me.
    Can you change the size of the screen resolution in OSX like you can on Windows? In Windows doing this makes everything visually bigger.
    Please say you can. I'm really wanting the Macbook as it would be great for for a student like me.
    Thanks in advance.
    Hopefully a Macbook 13" 2.0 Superdrive soon.
    Hopefully a Macbook 13" 2.0 Superdrive White soon.

    With an LCD, if you change the resolution, things will be bigger, but blurrier.
    You can however keep the resolution of the LCD at its native resolution, giving the maximum picture quality, and then use tools, such as Tinkertool…

    … to modify the font display size of items such as the menu bar, Finder labels etc etc.

  • Can you change the size of the preview images on an Apple TV without changing video resolution?

    I have a 32 inch LCD TV. My room is relatively large and I can't easily see the preview images or read the text on the TV across the room. Is it possible to change the size of preview images in the menu screens without increasing the resolution of the TV itself? I think this should be possible, but can't seem to find a way to do it.

    No that's not something you can do on the Apple TV.
    If you have any suggestions that you think might enhance the Apple TV you can send Apple your feedback here.

  • Can you change the size of the menu bar text ?

    I am getting on in years and it is harder to read the text in the menu bar. Is it possible to change the size of the text in the menu bar ?

    Christopher,
    Also If you want, you might look into the "Zoom" Accessibility feature.
    System Preferences > Accessibility > "Zoom" in the list on the left > Pick the Zoom settings you like.
    I myself am fond of and use the options "Use scroll gesture with modifier keys to zoom:" and Zoom Style: "Picture-in-Picture"
    The "Picture-in-Picture" makes a little magnifying like glass that follows my cursor around compared to the whole screen zooming in.
    The Modifier key one makes so that When I hold down ( Control ) and scroll it zooms in. You can control the depth of the zoom by scrolling more or less.
    Apples Help info on Zoom:

    Hope that helps,

  • Data Point Symbol in Line Graph  - can you change the size?

    I would like to change the Data Point Symbols in line graphs - if not the actual symbol it would be wonderful to be able to change the size of the symbols provided.
    At present, if there is a lot of data in the graph, the symbols are too big and crowd one another.
    I know that one can reduce the line size but that doesn't change the symbol size.
    Help please.

    If I understand your question, this from the Pages online help may give the answer:
    To mark line, area, and scatter charts with data point symbols:
    Select the entire chart. You can also select the chart series (the line or area shape) that you want to mark with data point symbols.
    Click Inspector in the toolbar, and then click the Chart Inspector button.
    Click Series (except for scatter charts).
    Choose a symbol from the Data Point Symbol pop-up menu.
    Choose one of the following options from the Symbol Fill pop-up menu:
    To fill the symbol with the same color as its outline, choose Use Stroke Color.
    To fill the symbol with a solid color, choose Color Fill, click the Fill color well, and pick a color.
    To fill the symbol with a gradient, choose Gradient Fill and use the gradient controls to set the colors and change the angle of the gradient.
    To fill the symbol with an image, choose Image Fill and select the image you want. You can also resize the image by choosing an option from the pop-up menu above the Choose button.
    To fill the symbol with a tinted image, choose Tinted Image Fill and select the image you want. Click the color well to the right of the Choose button to change the tint color. You can also resize the image by choosing an option from the pop-up menu above the Choose button.

  • Can you change the size of "Code QR" barcode?

    Hi all,
    The "Code QR" type barcode that is available by default in our system works fine, but creates a very small image that I would like to enlarge. The Objects Field properties list only contains a property called "Data Length = 10" (which I also do not know what it does? I tried changing it to 40 and it did nothing!).
    Is there a way to change the size at which a QR type barcode will be printed? I know size is related to the amount of information being encoded, but I'd like to enlarge the basic resolution of the image as well...
    Thanks in advance,

    HI,
    You  cannot change the PIc size of the Buddy on the Buddy List or in the Messages (Chat) window.
    In the View Menu you can turn off the Buddy Pics (Depending if the Buddy List or Messages window is the "Front" one when you use that Menu).

  • Can you change the size of a book from ITunes

    I have noticed booksthat I download from iTunes are very large 190 to 250mb. I usually purchase and download from Audible.com their book sizes are much smaller 15 to 25mb.  My question is, is there anyway to control the size of a book from iTunes?

    Hi
    As far as I know - NO not possibly in iMovie
    You need either to
    • Export out as QuickTime movie - and in QuickTime Pro change size then re-import - or -
    • Do the job in FinalCut - where this is easy and straight forward ( BUT FINALCUT in it self can be tough to LEARN - rather steet learning curve - but when into it Very rewarding )

  • How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?

    How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?  I searched the system and finder prefs to no avail.  Changing the screen density is not a good option.
    Thanks

    I downloaded Tinkertool.  Found the font section and increased the size of most selections.  The only thing that changed that I can see is the window label.  The apple line, bookmarks line, the tool bar in safari are all the same---font size of about 4.  Found the finder "show view options" but that didn't seem to change anything either.  I'll keep working.  Restarted all apps after changes as well.

    Vandushia,
    The Workspace size is fixed, 16,384 points.
    I am afraid you will have to work in a suitable scale, which could be 1:2, 1:4, 1:10, or whatever is most convenient.

    No, there isn't. The way you're using the file is not recommended. You
    should use a review tracker to avoid getting in the way of one another.

  • How do you change the size of pictures?

    Hello,
    I'm a new Mac user. How do you change the size of pictures in iPhoto? Sometimes when sending e-mails, the picture files are extremely large and take a long time to load... Is there any way you can make the picture or file smaller? Like on a PC, you can open the photo in the Paint program and just reduce the size... Is there anything like this for the Mac?
    Thanks!

    Assuming that you're accessing your email package from INSIDE iPhoto, you're given a choice of picture sizes. Personally, I've found "medium" to be a good compromise but you might prefer "small" (iPhoto will tell you the file size).
    If you don't know what I'm talking about, first go iPhoto Preferences > General and select your email client. Then, go to the View menu and select Show in Toolbar > Email.
