DeleteJournal

deletejournal hides the line last read by scanjournal, and every older line, from later scanjournal calls: they then read N/A. It marks text you have already handled, so it is not handled twice.

Tip

Following #JIndex is simpler and never skips or repeats a line. deletejournal is kept for older scripts.

deletejournal takes no line number on purpose. If new lines arrive between scanjournal and deletejournal, every line moves up, and a number would point at the wrong one. deletejournal remembers which line scanjournal last read instead.

Example

Check the last 10 lines, oldest first, and answer each “hail” once:

for %i 10 1
{
  scanjournal %i
  if hail in #Journal
  {
    msg Farewell$
    deletejournal
  }
}
halt
