Hi Bill,

it's fast written ;) - and if you don't have more than 999999999 lines in your document:



Create a new Command; input: selection or text; output: discard

Command:

#!/bin/sh
open txmt://open?line=`nl -nrz -w9 -b a|awk '{print length, $0}'|sort -nr|head -1|awk '{print $2}'`




This command will locate the caret at the beginning of the longest line in the current document.

Cheers, Hans
