Well I think you have bad luck because I don't have any problem with editing files with > 15000 lines. Also never had problem with selecting entire file. 

Maybe it depends on the machine you are working on ?

This brought the computer to its knees.

My bad. Just thought y'all could have a laugh at my expense. 

There are, of course, at least a dozen other ways to do what I started to do: Filter through command, Command, Search and replace ( $ with [replacement value]), etc

Tschuss,
