I have some transcripts coming back from this thing I am working on. I'd like to convert them to Hugo script files.

What would be the syntax of a good script that would search a text file, check the beginning of each line for the ">" character being first and then send the appropriate lines to a second text file?

I am installing Cygwin for this. Dev machine indeed!

Grep works!

grep.exe "^>" oldfile.txt > newfile.txt

I have WINDOWS GREP.

I'm pretty talented that way. Man, I didn't even have to bring up an AIM client and find YOU or anything.

Whew!

Hey, you got 600 words or so on Spy Hunter in ya, Ben?

The original game? Yes. Yes I do. Not just this second, though.
