[BLDG-SIM] eQuest: macro for extracting data from a sim file

[Brandon Nichols]

Jessica, 
 
I would use SED, which uses regular expressions to operate on text
files.  By coincidence, I just completed a post today on regular
expressions
<http://elcca-exchange.blogspot.com/2007/10/multiedit-regular-expression
s.html>  using MultiEdit to operate on .inp files.  Have used SED for
many utilitarian tasks similar to what you describe -- can you e-mail me
the part of the sim file containing the data you want to extract?
