Yes, it’s nontrivial to read long output indeed, and this is not specific to 1.5.4. See my question here: [How to read long output from external command?](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/how-to-read-long-output-from-external-command/47870). There was no answer, so I still don’t know how to do it properly.
