I need someone to poke me with a clue stick please!
I am trying to step through a file a line at a time. I had the idea that
this should work
aFileStream nextLine do: [ :line| Transcript show: line; cr.].
Unfortunately (as will be obvious to everyone) what it actually does is
print a character at a time. It took me a while to realise that -
aFileStream nextLine - is returning a string and the - do: - passing
the block to each character.
I need a way of passing the block to the string a line at a time. Or
perhaps I have got this totally back to front and there is a much easier
way of doing this?
Cheers
AB
