Yeah it's a tricky one... I've been in the this situation a few times now (and fwiw is where Kernow came from). The task is, you have 1000s of input files and multiple steps, where the output of each step feeds the next. You need to be able to run each step individually, or one file in that step, and of course also run all the steps in one go. Depending on the number of steps, a way to run from step x onwards is also helpful. So then its a case of run-to-the-end and log issues, or fail early and re-run individual steps. Personally I much prefer the latter, as theres a much faster turnaround for fixing and testing issues, but it does vary depending on the project. -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com
