[User] interactive mode with --multiline-input cannot input more than around 13000 byte words by one time.

[FNsi]

I found out this problem because I tried to let model help me read the arxiv paper!

(Linux 5.19 Ubuntu, 16k fineturn model + rope scaling)

[FNsi]

The thing is, the model will eval the first ~13000 bytes words automatically even I did not return control to it.

Then the model is going to extend that 13000 bytes words.

During that, using Control + C interject the processing, one of the rest part of words (out of ~13000byte) then be automatically send to the model.(another token length around 13000 bytes texts)

And it's evaluating, another control C needed ...till the whole paste text be processed.

Could you explain that again? When the length is greater than 13000 bytes there's an issue? What does it do? Are you on Windows or a POSIX system such as Linux or MacOs?

There's no fixed length buffers in the input code. 13000 bytes is however around 3.2k tokens, does your model support that context size?

[FNsi]

I don't want to use 20k context length by just Chatting with my model😂

[FNsi]

I guess we were typing at the same time but my typing is a bit earlier so I got the 2nd floor 😂

Yep, as I said, the model is going to extend all those 3.2 token parts...

I'm still having trouble understanding what's happening. (You can talk to me in your native language if it helps you explain.) Are you saying it's evaluating the text before you return control? That would suggest to me that one of the lines of text ends with \ or / and needs to be escaped to \ or / (edit: with a space after). I would suggest you feed the prompt in with -f and a file so you don't have to worry about escaping anything.

[DannyDaemonic]

Other's have mentioned potential issues with / and \ as line endings. I had thought about taking input until Ctrl-D in multiline mode. It seems a little less intuitive to me, but the most robust solution.

Your understanding is right.

I tried again with an article in wired

Still not working. This time no "/ " or "\ " at all.

It's working! Sorry for any inconvenience!

Sorry again 😅 the article from wired did work.

I see one / in the wired article but if you didn't copy that part out then there might be another issue. Perhaps the OS is having an issue with the length or something about the copy paste is making the input think it received an EOF or EOS signal. Is this Windows or Linux/MacOS?

[DannyDaemonic]

Ah, ok. The \ and / line endings are potential pitfalls. I wonder if there would be support for changing it to Ctrl-D. (Ctrl-D might be an issue where people enter data on their phones though...)

Right now the best thing to do is to put it all in one file and feed it in as the prompt with -f.

I didn't remove it, but it works fine😂 only \ will lead multi line input return the control in llama

Yeah, in that case it's not at the end of the line. I think sometimes mathematical formulas tend to split things into new lines. Which would be causing the issue on the arxiv paper.

You are right, in the paper I mention above there was a "/ " appeared before the stuck point.

You are right, in the paper I mention above there was a "/ " appeared before the stuck point.

And it stuck in "/"

But as the instruction in mútil line input said, return control to llama using " \ " !

That means the bug still exist!
