No turning back now... ;-)

just fyi, most of us rev users would consider 25 seconds
 to process 140 lines of text as very slow...

Of course I never use progress bars. I've processed 2meg files of raw text mailing lists
(loaded into a variable of course -- close to 20M lines) doing similar "clean ups"
of empty lines and other garbage... in under 5 seconds.


And, yes, several of us also fell out of our chairs the first time we saw this.

I wonder if the replace (cr& cr) with cr would be even faster?

If all that's needed is to remove empty lines that should be another couple orders of magnitude faster....
