-- D is the separator for numbers and text lines, usually space or ": "
-- T is the input text, delimited with return
-- prepends the number and separator to each line:
function addLineNumbers D,T
split T by return
put the keys of T into K
sort K numeric
repeat for each line L in K
put cr & L & D & T[L] after S
end repeat
return char 2 to -1 of S
end addLineNumbers
-- D is the separator for numbers and text lines, usually space or ": "
-- T is the input text, delimited with return
-- removes the number and separator from each line:
function removeLineNumbers D,T
split T by return and D
put the keys of T into K
sort K numeric
repeat for each line L in K
put cr & T[L] after S
end repeat
return char 2 to -1 of S
end removeLineNumbers
