#5 id by file offset/line

[Turbo Beholder]

Specifically for file headers, a match mode using the current offset in file (for binary) or line number (for texts/CSV) would simplify some things greatly.

File header is considered the first line in a file. Or do you mean that e.g. line number 23 should match a specific record?

[Turbo Beholder]

I mean, different records for one file structure for header and for general data after it.
It would be convenient to have some way to declare a header record that would be used at the first line/byte, and then never tried again. As it is, the only way to do this is to set up a convoluted condition in rid that will be matched by the header, and hopefully never matched by any actual data.

We discussing the same issue here as in case four. I'll close this.
