Greetings,
I myself am rather new to string manipulation. But would something
like this work?
char *new_smash_tilde (const char *str)
{
static char newbuf[MSL];
int count;
for (count = 0 ; *str != '\0'; str++, count++)
{
if (*str == '~')
{
newbuf[count] = '&';
count++;
newbuf[count] = '-';
}
else
newbuf[count] = *str;
}
count++;
newbuf[count] = '\0';
return newbuf;
}
Of course, you'd need to call something like
string = new_smash_tilde(string);
instead of the way the original is called.
If there is an easier/more elegant way to do this I'm all ears :).
Also, quick question. In the loop, is it possible to just do a
newbuf[++count] = '-';
Instead of incrementing the counter on a seperate line? I seem to
recall seeing this done somewhere but it returned an error.
Good luck :)
Brett
Hi,
I would like to change the following function to replace the tilde letter
to
the two letters "&-" which is my color code for the tilde letter. Right now
it can only replace the letter with another letter. What what I do to this
function to be able to replace the tilde letter with two letters? I'm new
to
string manipulation. =P
