Screenshot:
A new screenshot would be appropriate, as it has been changed quite a bit since the previous one was taken



The Console section is marked to emphasize that it's disabled when running the .exe, as that has no Console capabilities.

Updated ScriptLineCounter to version 1.6.0.0

What's new/changed:

• Added: New FileFormat nr. 4, based on doc-files supplied by Saira, the original initiator of this tool.
    note: This format is quite similar to FileFormat 2, so it may need to be forcibly used on some files/filesets.
• Added: Setting the FileFormat from the commandline using -ff parameter, or set from the ini file, as documented in the readme.
• Changed: GUI now has the Fileformat combo box enabled, to force a specific file format to be used.
• Improved: Some more robustness while handling the file contents.
• Added: A warning in the readme file to NOT use Windows Notepad for editing the properties files, as it inserts a BOM in UTF-8 files, not supported by SLC.

Updated ScriptLineCounter to version 1.7.1.0

What's new/changed:

• Added: The possibility to have .doc/.docx files processed like csv (file-format 5) if the content is a table with proper headings (use -cn and -ct command-line options to set the used headers)
• Added: Command-line (-ci <lines>) and ini (skiplines) and gui option to ignore the first n lines of a file
• Added: Command-line (-cm <max>) and ini (maxcharacternameparts) and gui option to specify the number of words a character-name can consist of. Default is 4
• Changed: When using debug-level 3 or 4 (-3 / -4 command-line options) the files read are saved as text with the same name appended with .txt.tmp extension, useful for inspecting how SLC 'sees' the file
