Oni: Oni open binaries will cause crash

[gynet]

If a user uses Oni to open a binary, e.g Oni.exe, node.dll in the package, it will crash within seconds.

Thanks for logging the issue! I'm assuming you're on Windows?

I'm able to reproduce as well on Windows 10. It looks like Oni gets the disconnect even from Neovim (which I believe means the neovim process died).

This doesn't reproduce in nvim-qt.exe - so I'm wondering if it is related to the default / core set of plugins we use for Oni integration. In particular, the buffer update might be causing problems for these large binary files.

Yes, I am using Windows 10

Interesting, this isn't a problem on Linux; it loads binary files just fine. I tried with nvim.exe, which is 3.8MB so I don't think large file sizes are a problem. I wonder if this issue only occurs on Windows.

I will look into this too since I am making a plugin and it sometimes opens very, very large files :).
