I want to insert no's into a txt file. I periodically get a lot of text files from a software which needs numbering. I want a script that can insert no's in from of each word in every line. Can anyone help me with a script to do it. Preferably a batch script.

HIP HIP HURRAY !

Thank you so much MR. Sharath Reddy. My boss always send me text files like this to number them. Usually each file have 10,000+ name and other details in it and asks me to complete it in less than 1 hour. Really its a difficult task to number each line. Now you guys really made it very easy. Thanks for the script MR. Sharath.

I really appreciate you in helping me from this crisis which I was facing more than 1 month.

Thanks to techyv.com
