pathalias problem: out of memory type error

[J. Eric Townsend]

I think i'm on to a solution:

I normally run pathalias by te method of:
cat files | pathalias -args > file; sort file > file; etc

Lenny suggested:
pathalias -args files > file

The second method works!  It does *not* blow up my machine.

Note:  Don't try and run two concurrent pathalias jobs on a 3b1 at once,
even 3.5Mb RAM isn't enough room...
