This could be an interesting little project for someone to check out
our scripting abilities. I am sure (well Chet would tell me) "Perl does
this no sweat."
1. It could be that Dan is just programming functionally in a naive
manner.
2. It could be that he's loading the whole file at once and you don't
need that.
3. It could be an algorithmic or a language problem.
Of course 3 is most interesting. So anyone? --Matthias
