Here's another interesting one to mull over what it does, just for fun:
replace (the lineDelimiter) with (the itemDelimiter) in tList put (itemOffset(tItem, tList) div itemsPerLine) into tLineNumber if (tLineNumber > 0) then add 1 to tLineNumber
To ponder: why would this be useful for searching data with a fixed number of items per line many times?
I guess I don't understand the code, or something.
If the item I am searching for is the very first item, then the itemOffset() returns 1, so the div produces 0 which goes into tLineNumber. Therefore the if test is false, so I don't add the 1 - leaving me with a value of 0.
I'd interpret that to mean "item not present", since there isn't a line number 0.
Am I missing something obvious ?
