The bug seems to be based on how fast your storage is. Slower the storage the more likely you will hit the bug. 250GB 5400RPM drive it prints the write error when %x gets between 997 and about 750. 100MB Ramdisk is a bit more difficult to replicate the issue, sometimes it will not error at all. Code alias write_bug { var %x 1000 while (%x) { write -l 1 test newline1 echo -ag %x dec %x } }

Khaled Hoopy frood Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 5,420 London, UK	Thanks for your bug report. The most common reason for this issue is anti-virus software that is blocking further writing to the file while it scans the file. I just tested your script with v7.76 on a 5400rpm drive and it worked fine here. I also tested v7.45 and v7.46 and they both worked fine as well. There is no difference in the /write source code between v7.45 and v7.46.
