Use Edit instead of MacWrite, get the current version of MacWrite that can swap to disk, find the Basic program floating around that cuts large files into pieces, or write your own. It might also be that the MacTerminal file contains some odd characters that freak out MacWrite. I don't know if MacWrite is sensitive to garbage; Edit certainly is. Again you could write a program to read the file and delete any bizarre characters (anything <32 except CR, and anything >= 127) or convert them into something printable. -------
