Maximum size of sed file...
The sed -f option (reading sed commands from a file) seems to have a limit of 200 transactions per file. I can't see anything in the man pages about this restriction.
I have a file with several thousand sed commands I need to perform (substitutions) - and while I can split the file into chunks of 200 fairly easily - I wonder if there is a way to define the sed file limitation? Seems a very small number for such a function.

HISTORY
The GNU shtool subst command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 2001 for GNU shtool. It was prompted
by the need to have a uniform and convenient patching frontend to sed(1) operations in the OpenPKG package specifications.
