    line renumbering howto?

    What's the easy way to renumber lines of code, set line increments, etc with Mach3? Currently I'm using Notepad which frankly bites, or else I don't know how to use it properly. This issue came up when running the roadrunner.tap sample code. Everything stopped part way through. Suspect the demo code limit was reached.

    Probably the limit. Mach3 will just stop at about 1000 lines of code.

    You could load it into Excel as a space delimited file, and quickly add line numbers in there. Insert a column, enter 1 in the A1 cell, and drag down.

    Excel, will check to see if I have that. Found NCPlot which does a very nice job of renumbering plus has some other useful features.

    Yep, roadrunner is in the 4000 line range. Explains the stoppage pretty clearly.
