Hi Cris 

I used notepad ++ and converted the file to utf-8 without Bom and it worked !

Thank you so much

Hans

First, please use imp2vs. It's virtually the same as vpl2mod, but better supported and will likely lead to fewer errors. To convert `vpl' to `imp' format, change:

gen 1:1 <text of Gen 1:1>

to

$$$gen 1:1
<text of Gen 1:1>

In Perl-style regex syntax, this would be:
s/^(.+? \d+:\d:+) /\$\$\$$1\n/
Or with a single emacs regex replace (C-M-% by default), you can search on:
\(^.+? [0-9]+:[0-9]+\)
(note final space) and replace with
$$$\1^J
(C-Q C-J to produce the newline ^J)
Other editors may have other methods of doing regex replace.


Your chief problem, however, is that you have saved your file with an editor that inserts the Unicode BOM. You may achieve the desired result by deleting the first three characters of the file. (Or, doing so may simply reveal the next error.)
