maxsizes - parameters limiting code 
Most NEMO programs use
dynamic memory to allocate  arrys and other opjects where it is not practical
to  know the size of in advance. 
NEMO_MAXFD    64    maximum number of files simultaneously open
MAX_COL         256    maximum number of columns
MAX_LINELEN    16384    maximum linelength for ascii files
Various other maximum sizes sometimes creep up in the user interface.
The unix shell is a notable example. Each shell can handle a different size.
An example is fitsglue(1NEMO)
, where a set of files is pasted together
into a fits cube. Instead of a long string 
    set in=f1.fits,f2.fits,f3.fits,....
    fitsglue in=$in ...
you can also use the macro facility, and create a file with all filenames
 
    cat file1
    f1.fits
    f2.fits
    ...
    fitsglue in=@in
$NEMO/inc/max/maxizes.h      template, to be copied into $NEMOLIB
$NEMOLIB/maxsizes.h             user maintained to taylor their version of NEMO
