Hello Karl,
I am trying to tackle the next round of conversion errors. To find
details about a particular error from the "error" file I am trying to
find the line number in the "loadscript" file. I am opening the file
with "less" and using the commands
$ g linenumber or $ G linenumber
One searches from the beginning of the file forward and the other from
the end backwards.
Because this is such a huge file it actually takes about 10 minutes (or
more) to get to a particular line number. Is there another way we can do
this? If we have to do it this way I will be here until I am very old
and grey!
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Leah
