Hi, yesterday I stumbled over the following feature:
charstring=.'ABCD',CR,LF,'DEÄF',CR,LF,'GÖßI',CR,LF,'ÄÖÜß',CR,LF charstring ABCD DEÄF GÖßI ÄÖÜß #charstring 31 (How bizarre! I counted 24; 16 letters and 8 control characters!) I want to create a 4 by 4 character array from this string in order to perform operations like transpose, row and column indexing, diagonal extraction etc. How can I do that?
