Subject: Remove file size limit in ass_read_file
X-Git-Tag: 0.9.9~6
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7fa4c5e2f0a0e131814c32f414435af32818ab85;p=libass

Remove file size limit in ass_read_file

loading very big files (which can trash memory), it should do so by
itself.
