SP2-0027 error in SQLPLUS

Screen -1

While running a script, from SQLPLUS, I came across an error: "SP2-0027: Input is too long (> 2499 characters) - line ignored" (Screen -1) - even though I had already run SET SERVEROUTPUT ON SIZE UNLIMITED.
There is a lengthy discussion on resolving this at tom kyte's website - click here to go there. However, I ran the same script under SQLDeveloper, it worked! (Screen-2). Now, that's an easy solution :-)
