How to set stacksize to unlimited OS X 10.8?

Question

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but when I type

$limit stacksize unlimited

Into a terminal on Mountain Lion I get:

-bash: limit: command not found

and so I try:

sudo ulimit -s unlimited

Which won't work either. Can you please tell me what I should be using to get an unlimited stacksize in terminal?

Answer 1

I have now realised that for the limit command I need to use a tcsh shell.
