Thank you so much.
So far, the dev version (2025-12-07-0839) eliminates the slowdowns and beachballs.
Meanwhile, your earlier comment about running directly in Terminal got me to look at the Terminal window that mac-helper opens, and I now have a set of Terminal commands I can paste in at the shell prompt. Nice.
In the process of doing this, I observed that the onepux converter isn't happy if the converter options field is left empty in the Convert File dialog.
The onepux converter can only generate the following format(s):
csv
Provide the --to_format option to specify a generator.
So I tried entering "--to_format csv" in converter options, and the onepux converter was happy.
Also, after successfully running the the onepux converter in both the 2025-06-06 version and the new Dev version, Terminal includes this:
Use of uninitialized value $field in lc at
/Users/bjustin/Desktop/mrc-converter-suite/./MCS/Generators/CSV.pm line 320 (#1)
(W uninitialized) An undefined value was used as if it were already defined. It was interpreted as a "" or a 0, but maybe it was a mistake. To suppress this warning assign a defined value to your variables.
As I said, I still get my .csv output. But this also is displayed in Terminal, which I hadn't noticed until today.
One last question, prompted by the "uninitialized value" notification: does Onepux.pm generate the .csv output on its own, or does it call upon Csv.pm?
Again, I so appreciate your help.
