That solves the problem with commas, but it looks like you may still have
issues if there are quotes in the file.
I know one thing I've done in the past with some of my programs is allow the
use of either a double-quote ("), single-quote ('), or grave-quote (`) as
string demarkers, which

Does this mean that edlin program already supports NLS and the files from Jerome are wrong? Or what is the problem?Could you send a working NLS version so that I can fix this problem for Jerome? Would be great.Willi--Diese Nachricht wurde von meinem Android Mobiltelefon mit mail.com Mail
I haven't shipped the NLS stuff since version 2.20 or so because I thought
Jerome was handling that. -- Gregory

It would be great when edlin could support the 20 NLS files that are shipped with it some day.
At least 1.24 till 1.29 of the NLS files are not supported. And I do not speak about Chinese.

FD edlin ignores a leading space. If you want the leading space to be searched
for, put the string in quotes; e.g.
1r"written"," written"
The reason why I didn't stick a ^Z there is because I wanted to get away from
control characters in the commands, and a comma just looks better, IMHO.
