[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Geany starts glitch if open a very large text file (#2076)

[Colomban Wendling]

Looking at the size and doing a few tests suggests it might be due to us still using signed 32 bits integers for holding positions and alike.  Maybe even in Scintilla, that might require a specific define to use 64bits positions.
This would mean trouble when the file size is greater than `(1 << 31) - 1`, which your file definitely is.  I'll try and dig a little more,  but it might be far from trivial to fix ATM :confused:
