Hello Investman,
Selecting -t option is one way of overcomming the 255 scrips
limitation provided your securites in each letter is <= 255, but will
not be of much use if each of the scrips in a perticular letter
directory ex. 'A' itself has more than 255 scrips.
The solution for this is to implement XMASTER format support.
Regards,
Mansoor.
