Command Results scroll too fast? Here's a solution.

Actually, I found this by accident.

I frequently run programs and want to view the top of the Command Results screen before it's finished.

Use the split screen facility on the command results - then you can view the file at leisure even if the other half is rapidly scrolling by. Isn't that neat?

What I have done successfully before is:-
Convert , to <tab>
create a document class with tab set wider than your widest field
open the csv file into this document class and then use TextPad to sort it.

Unfortunately TextPad won't do it I believe. But WildEdit will do exactly this

Search in block mode

In block mode I search for

Code: Select all

 ];)
and attempt to replace with
)
But this does not work.
If I turn off block mode it works. Is this a bug?

Try gc, it works very well, is free but seems to be no longer supported though the source code is available. It can be configured to do just this.

I don't think so automatically, but I expect WildEdit can change all the files in a subdirectory.
search for
(.*)\x00
Replace with
$1

Test replace

When I do a "test replace" WildEdit makes one change only to my test file and then returns the cursor to the top of the file. If I have not missed the obvious, 1. I would like it to either apply the edit to the whole file or change the next occurrence each time I hit F4 2. I would like all...
