Hello folks
I am doing a content analysis of online chat and messaging. Sometimes very
large files, thousands or even hundreds of thousands of messages. I am finding
filter and find to be delightfully fast.
However…. Sometimes I want to prefix each line with the line number, and do
this:
put 1 into tcount
repeat for each line j in it
put tcount & j into line tcount of it
put tcount + 1 into tcount
set the thumbpos of scrollbar "filterprog" to tcount
end repeat
put it into field “numberedtext”
I use ‘it’ because of a dim memory (superstition? Myth?) from long ago that it
is faster than an arbitrarily named variable. Still, the whole process is
pretty darned slow. Any brilliant suggestions?
Best Wishes,
David Glasgow
