All formats I know except CNS have single records per reflection.

In CNS a reflection record can go over several lines - I know no way of
avoiding requiring a format tt to read such a record..

A clever programmer could parse a few lines and work one out, but in
fact the format is not nec. consistent through the whole CNS file..

The only safe way I think is to parse every line and recognise the
different flags, then read the following number.

Is should be kept by default when you run TRUNCATE - I hope that usually
happens..
