Hi all...
when using the print command, is it possible to print the first n amount of
characters in a string?
Cheers

Yes, right, but I have to care about to all the various cases, that is

Assuming your input line looks like this:

Here is a one-line solution to do what you want:
do replace replace/all replace/all inline "," " " "=" ": " "a4" "a4: true"
It works for any ordering of inline, and also if the values are separated by
