Hey Jean-Christophe,
You can always use a traditional handler-call instead of an interleaved one.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
use AppleScript version "2.4"
use framework "Foundation"
use scripting additions
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
set pathString to " /path/to/my file.stuff "
set newStr to cngStr("^\\s*|\\s*$", "", pathString)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--» HANDLERS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
on cngStr(findStr, replaceStr, dataStr)
set anNSString to current application's NSString's stringWithString:dataStr
set dataStr to (anNSString's stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:findStr
withString:replaceStr ¬
options:(current application's NSRegularExpressionSearch) range:{0,
length of dataStr}) as text
end cngStr
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can also tuck your hander into a library, so all you see in your working
script is something like this:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
use fLb : script "fLb"
set pathString to " /path/to/my file.stuff "
set newStr to fLb's cngStr("^\\s*|\\s*$", "", pathString)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this case the library is:
~/Library/Script Libraries/FLb.scptd
Personally I'll continue to use the Satimage.osax until its dying day. 14
years and counting...
