Hahaha haha! Seriously, though, I would try to port the text file to Windows and do the restructuring there using visual studio. Then re-port the files back. If it can be done, it would save a lot of time I would think. But then again you are the witch goddess of coding! Doing it your way I'm sure will only take you two hours!

No, but I was once handed a program that had 2.5MB of code in ONE file (90K lines) and I was told, "fix this."
I don't have much hair left at all now.

I might have to do something similar: I've got a version of the VAX VMS OS on microfiche cards. As I haven't got a microfiche reader at the moment (or for that sake: ever), I cannot tell you which version of VMS. But if I want to port that VMS version to my PC, I would be in a similar situation.
(Of course I know of OpenVMS. But I think that is a fake, compared to an actual port of the VMS I once were using.)

More times than I can count. We had a programmer on staff who despised Windows programming (he sucked Steve Jobs' left teat), even though we were/are a Windows shop. While his UI's looked great, the underlying code was utter garbage. Since he was laid off I've rewritten everything he ever did in our active projects.
I used your approach, taking screen shots that I subsequently recreated on my own.

All quiet! I wasn't sure if this was quite within the rules.

Us not replying is within the rules, yes. It generally means "I have no idea where you are going with this one".
If you mean your clue may not be within the rules, then - understandably - I have no idea if it is. See above.

Yes, I'm not sure about my clue. It makes perfect sense to me - but, it would, I guess!
As a very small hint: there are no anagrams involved.

No, just means none of us have a clue, and @OriginalGriff is fast asleep.

Its been a long day and my mind is stuck in a rut . I was watching a short doco before dinner about an ancient tsunami (which "run for the hills" reminds of) off the coast of Scotland which was caused by a strike "slip" fault. Couldn't fit the other clues into the theme.
// TODO: Insert something here

No tsunami involved. I suspect "for the hills" is misdirecting people.
|
|
|
|
|
Then I'll take a wild-assed stab at it.
OROGRAPHY?

Nope. It's not a "hills" thing.

Eggs go bad after kids awkwardly vamoose.
|
|
|
|
|
In that case,
SKIDADDLE - run
Eggs go off ADDLE
After slip / kids SKID
It was definitely "for the hills" that was extraneous!

Yes, we have a winner. You got in just before I posted the solution, so I'm happy to hand over the mantle of setting it for tomorrow. Well done.
[Edit] I thought it would be too easy without the 'run for the hills' misdirection. Shows how much I know about setting CCC.

You guys have let me down! Synonym for "rubbish clue"! So here's the answer:
Eggs go off - ADDLE
after
slip - SKID
= SKIDADDLE
Even though this is an 'alternate' spelling, I thought giving you too much more would make it too easy. Hence: "run for the hills" - which is listed as a synonym for skidaddle, Skidaddle Synonyms, Skidaddle Antonyms | Thesaurus.com[^], but is not so obvious or possible to 'reverse lookup'.
Does this mean I'm back on tomorrow?

|
|

Roadblocks? Yes, indeed. Never got it to work at all, way back when. No real interest in trying it out again.

I was hoping you would have recovered from your trauma by now!
That's fine, I'll try again for us both!

who actually recovers from Microsoft induced trauma? A couple, at best? The rest of us are left to live the rest of our lives in misery and torment, never to see a happy day again.
