Well Python is cross-platform and is easy to use. Tell him from me that:
Python is object-oriented, using functions and classes. In Python,
absolutely everything is an object, even methods. I could therefore
have an array of function names and call one by using funcs[2](args).
This is very powerful
Hi Paul.
I had to find out. My husband said he used Visual Basic. He said he was not
familiar with Python.

Hi Ben.
I may not have explained very well. I'm not needing a total line count for the
whole file. What I meed to do is to know what print page, what braille page,
and what line number a given mistake I find is located on if it were brailled
on a braille printer. That way, I don't have to count
No idea if this works on BRF files, but you can display the line count in a
file by running `wc -l ` in Terminal.
Example: wc -l ~/Documents/Report1.txt
As Ben has already mentioned, Apple Script could indeed be useful to either you
or your husband in this case. The WC command could even be ran
No way. However, if all you want to do is count line numbers then you
should be able to do it through Apple script. If he is still up to
scratch on general programming concepts then Apple script shouldn't be
that hard to learn, so I wouldn't go installing windows just yet.
Cheers,
Ben.

What language did he use? Python is a great cross-platform language
that he may want to look into. Using the wxPython gui library,
accessible guis for programs should be easy to design. I doubt
anything written for something as old as an Apple II would run on a
modern system, but I could be wrong.
Hi guys.
This is not a sales announcement or anything. My husband wrote this program for
me which right now runs under Windows. He used to write custom programs for
small businesses for both the Apple 2 and the PC.
I got tired of counting lines and finding page numbers in brf files. As a
