[OasisOLC] To page or not to page?

Ok, because vnums can go beyond 100 per zone, how should I go about paging using the list commands?  If I page them, I will have to catch MAX_STRING_LENGTH otherwise it will crash the mud.  The other option, which I have temporarily chosen, is to send all the data using send_to_char one line at a time.  This can possibly dc the builder that is listing the room/zones/blah, but it is better than crashing the mud as well as it may or may not dc the user...hmmm.....what would you do?
