G-code/tap files-Deleting..Is there an easier way?

[jpatton]

So I have a shark and cannot restart from a specific line like I hear the mach can after stopping a project. I have tinkered with deleting code out of my tap file that has already been run on longer carves...(Most of mine are 20+ hours)..My issue is having to keep my finger on the delete button for hours to do this. I have downloaded a few free progs to edit the tap file/g-code..But none seem to have a "delete to line" button..It took me almost 4 hours to delete 200000+ lines of code last night...Just as long as it took to run it...Surely there has to be an easier way to do this...Any info greatly appreciated....
Thanks

Select (left click on) the first line you want deleted.
Move to the last line you want deleted, and shift click on the end of it. The two lines and everything in between will be selected.
Press Delete.

Works in most text editors. I use Microsoft Notepad.
