Put data in lines

[Camm29]

Thanks ,
Jim , Björnke and Mark for your comments and solution.

It's work great and fast !

One issue is that the next data string received may be longer or shorter ,
but it still must appear in the correct line !
(the system only sends changed data for a given line)

So , first 999 lines could be sent , then only 2 lines.
999 lines of data need to stay displayed  then only 2 lines data to change !

the line number is before the =
the data is after the =

Regards
Camm

I find that the array method as shown by Mark will work a bit faster than
the replace delimeters method, but you have to use a data list of about
10,000 to see the difference.  At 50000 lines of data, the replace takes
9-10 ticks, and the array method takes 6-7 ticks.  At 4000 lines, both will
show 0 ticks elapsed, which means less than half a tick.  Tick is about
1/60th of a second.
