Orchestrator: Read Line activity

Great overview over the Read line Activity usage.

Type the line numbers of the text that you want to read from the file that you specified.

·   To specify a range of lines, use a hyphen: 1-3. This reads lines 1 to 3.

·   To specify specific lines, use a comma: 5,7,9. This reads lines 5, 7, and 9.

·   Combine the range and specific lines: 1-3,5,7,9. This reads lines 1 to 3, and lines 5, 7, and 9.

·   To specify from a specific line to the last line of the file, type the line number, hyphen, and END: 4-END. This reads lines 4 to the last line of the file.

·   To specify from a specific line to a line relative to the last line of the file, type the line number, hyphen, the less-than sign, and the line number relative to the end line: 4-END<3. If the file has 20 lines, this reads lines 4 to 17 from the file. <3 represents the third line from the end.

·   To specify the last number of lines, type LASTLINES, colon, and the last number of lines that you want to delete: LASTLINES:10. This reads the last 10 lines of the file.

·   Combine different types of operations: 1-5, 8, 10-END<20, LASTLINES:10. This reads lines 1 to 5, line 8, line 10 to the 20th line from the end, and the last 10 lines. Do not overlap lines or line ranges when combining operations. For example, 5-END, LASTLINES:10 fails because the 5-END operation already reads to the end, so the LASTLINES:10 operation cannot succeed because the lines are already read, and the activity fails.
