    only problem here, is that it omits everything e.g
    # phn .. .. # xxxxx # phn .. .. # 1ord
    so here the code would onit both rather than just the second?
      Yes, it starts with the first "phn" and it ends with the first "lord". Everything between get lost. It can't work properly if the file isn't structured this way.
