Ok.

I have solved my '/usr/bin/rrdtool: arg list too long' problem with this
mode.

For information I have used this simple command to pipe my orignal file to
rrdtool:

cat file| awk 'BEGIN{ORS=" "}{sub("[\\134]
*$","");gsub(",[\\134\134][*]",",*");print $0}' | rrdtool -

(just with removing of '\' present at end of line, and change of '\*' I add
in some rpn expressions to '*')

No problem with treatment of my file (659 lines, 30140 bytes)

Thanks a lot ;)
