Line breaks may have been introduced in the cutting and pasting. Try this version. I've added more line breaks to try to avoid new, nasty ones cropping up when you cut and paste. Oh, and don't forget to rename the input file or slash it out.

Remember, this scan is slow, unfortunately. Maybe it can be streamlined later.
