Hi Richard,

You are right, but logging still shows a cumulative slowdown as each chunk

is even slower, however. (The source file is a 1 GIG binary text file)

Hi Hugh,Just a thought about the approach rather than the code. What if you
did the same thing you are doing but first split the file in half viz read
for 500, or whatever. Then deal with each half, possibly even making
quarters or eighths. That way you are only dealing with the big file once?

On Win, I am used to run the following handler to know if the user is

Is there some global setting I'm missing, or is this a bug (which I

Ian, take a look at the 'numberFormat' property in the docs.
set the numberformat to 0.#
put 51.905719161 - 51.905658591
produces 0.6057 - which is correct, I think.

You might try copying one of the pLists from your other apps and

with the newly edited one. I haven't had any problems with pList
