Bug Stomp

incremental/partial imports would be an excellent idea, but could cause particular problems with (especially numeric) gotos.

I live by the import/export myself. Using "user-friendly" interfaces generally feels like driving in first gear.

So do I. I can't stand working on my language centre online.

>> problems with Goto numerics
One could be required to use string identifications for imported gotos and get around that. Are you saying the Gotos do not change with each import? I thought they were reassigned. Gotos do not export as numerics; they export as string identifers (thank Heavens).

I am successfully importing Only Once today, by the way. But the settings don't seem to export. And all I see in the Only Once column is a dot for '1' or nothing. I may have missed that earlier.

Are you saying the Gotos do not change with each import?

I believe they don't, though it's been a long time since I was last able to import, now BJ's approaching 3Mb.

Hola. Incremental imports, please! I'm only at 15K, but things are already slowing down.

I'm aiming to reach the datamass of Project Gutenburg's etext of War and Peace (3.13Mb) by his birthday

i've never exported and imported myself because i'm scared it will bring to many problems to the computer and it won't work?

It is very easy.

hmm. yes but whats the advantages 0f it?
