Can I do a 'sort lines...' based on how many times a particular character appears in the line?
I have several files of street addresses that will eventually end up in a single csv. Some lines have more separating commas than others and I'd like to sort each file according to how many commas appear in a line. Even better would be to use just the commas that appear after the final \ as in the example below: CD 6\C\Company, Unit 2 Little Place, Clarke Road N10\Company, Unit 2 ,Little Place, Clarke Road ,N10 CD 8\L\Flat C, 64 Lime Road N11\Flat C, 64 ,Lime Road ,N11 CD 7\B\Broad Street N6\Broad Street ,N6 becomes CD 7\B\Broad Street N6\Broad Street ,N6 CD 8\L\Flat C, 64 Lime Road N11\Flat C, 64 ,Lime Road ,N11 CD 6\C\Company, Unit 2 Little Place, Clarke Road N10\Company, Unit 2 ,Little Place, Clarke Road ,N10 (the format is disc\start letter\filename\address in csv) Eventually I'll change the \ into commas, but it suits me to leave them as they are for now.
