Hello ahamed,

I've tested the program using as input the attached file of 20MB on cygwin and compiled on windows too ran from DOS.

In cygwin I got the segmentation error and compiled in Windows the script process data but stops suddenly. It processes 2550 lines
and the last line repeats the values of subblocks many times. When stops the maximun file size of the ouput is 231Kb.

One more question, is possible to print the values in the moment that is analyzed by the program? because it seems is storing in buffer the
data that will be printed and prints at the end and for a big file it could be problems.

I hope you can see why this happens.

PD: For the attached bin20MB, the line:
Code:
static unsigned char pat1[] = {0x99, 0x11, 0x45, 0x27};

Should be modified to:
Code:
static unsigned char pat1[] = {0x99, 0x11, 0x45};

Thanks so much again!
bin20MB.rar (1.11 MB)
