Hi Gang,

Got a problem which may help others if there is a solution...
I need to read the very last line from a file that's 3 - 20MBs large...
So I tried:

open file blabla for reading
read from file blabla for -100
put the result into r
put it into x
close file blabla

Unfortunately I never got an answer back, MC crashed...
No result, no error...

I dont want to resort to external programs (tail.exe) to do this...
Does anyone have a standard scripted solution?

Thanks in advance
Xavier
