I second the UltraEdit recommendation.

I have found that NoteTab will open about any size of Unix or Windows text file. There are different versions available. It is available at http://www.notetab.com.

I use Ultra Edit for text editing, I think it can open a file of any size. You can try it at ultraedit.com

It also has many great features built in for web page editing such as syntax highlighting and FTP Open/Save.

I haven't found an editor (for windows) that I like better, and I still haven't tried about half the features on it.

vi is a unix text editor. Most of the time now, vi is aliased to vim (vimproved), which has syntax highlighting and such.

Whats vi ?

[edit] Ok managed to get it open, what I did was split the file into 20 smaller files, did a search on google for text split and found a freeware zip of little programs from a edu department.

Now I just have to find time to go thru them [/edit]

Thanks

i already had a similar probleme and vi solved it for me. if you only need the end of the file you could also use this on unix

tail -n1000 yourfile.txt > smallfile.txt

Email it to me and I will see if I can open it...just kidding. Can you open it using vi on the machine that it is hosted on via SSH maybe?

logging one of my web sites.
5-10mb is normal, so need to find out who's linking to what.
error log is no help as they haven't caused any errors (doesn't list 302's)

270MB?! What the hell were you logging?
