    From Steven Sheeley@1:275/97 to All on Sun Jan 29 19:32:29 2017
    I've been relearning Pascal over the past few months and have been working with Lazarus and Free Pascal. I've been working on a Log Analyzer/Archiver & Bulletin Generator program for BBS systems. I've got the GUI mainly designed and I can display log files in a Memo control. My issue is with parsing text files. I just can not wrap my head around it.

    If anyone can point me in the right direction or can lend a hand in this, please reach out to me ehre or at Split Infinity BBS (infinity.synchro.net).

    Thank you in advance

    parsing in what way? what is it that you don't understand? what is there to be parsed instead of simply displayed?
