I didn't think of using excel, that's very nice. If you have any coding skills, Perl is a fantastic tool for this job, and it saves you a <em>lot</em> of time when typing in all those symbols. My script regexes through something like this: <code>Rnd 25: k5, k2tog, k7, k2tog, k4, ssk, k7, ssk, k5 (32 sts)</code> and converts it to this: <code>Rnd 25: ||-----|/----|---/-|---\-|-----|-\---|--|| (32 sts)</code> I usually have to correct a few things at the end, but it works pretty well. It's not a difficult thing if you know Perl and a bit about regexing. I use the symbols you do, and % for kfb (it looks like what you do! kinda.) and + for m1. Thanks!
