Rob,
here is a simple sample for SRST:
L R15,SAVE point in string for cont
LA R14,256(R15)
LA R0,C'/'
SRST R14,R15
* R14 is now on the first /
LA R15,1(R14)
SRST R14,R15
* R14 is now on the second /
Two hints:
1.) SRST should be followed by a JO *-4, but POP says min
length scanned is 255. So it can be omitted in certain cases.
2.) A found condition is indicated by a L (L_located).
A not found condition is indicated by a H (not L_ocated) -
so an extra JH NOT_FOUND might be usefull (or JL LOCATED_CHAR).
I had a hard time getting used to SRSTs way of using/wanting the
registers- but then... It does an excellent job on searching for one
(and only one) character in a string.
