Dennis,

could you post the "dumb, too-slow" code to show what you need to do ?
The more specifically we can see the problem, the more "imaginative" 
solutions we might come up with.

I suspect some variant of Dick's suggestion (using split on all-but-one 
of the lists, and "for each"-ing over that remaining one) - perhaps 
repeated internally on the items of each line - will get you an adequate 
solution --- but we'll get there more quickly and certainly if we know 
more closely what we are trying to do.
