Hi everybody!
Some time ago there wasn't any possibility to create disk file larger
than 2G and there was no problem with lseek().
But as for now we can do it but I looked into headers and found off_t is
equal to long -> no more than 2G on i386 machines.
As far as lseek() is a system call I cannot believe it cannot be used
with larger files but how?
Maybe it's a silly question? :0)
