Some string manipulations, like find and replace are 1 liners in javascript.

[tw5] Re: How to correctly insert new-line characters through a setfield widget
To explain what the (complicated, yes that's true) macros do:
they split the input string into single characters prefixed with an index
from 1 to text-length, so I have an array:
1h 2e 3l 4l 5o 6%20 7{ 8{ 9$ 10: 11/ and so on
they are numbered so that each list-item is unique
depending what I want to do, I can enlist these numbered characters, remove
the prefixed number, knowing at what index I am, and doing stuff with the
character, like matching it and the following ones against a prefix or just
replacing it or whatever
I can also count the lines if I want, telling at which line something is, I
guess I can also figure out the index of the char at that specific line
I want to see how far I can go with wikitext only :P

That's what I'm doing in the first place. I wouldn't need the diff-match-patch here, I just use it to get those special characters visualized Here I'm trying to replace single characters without changing the overall formatting and without looking into javascript I haven't looked into the capabilities of the diff-match-patch widget, though - can it do this out of the box? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.

I had experimented with all kinds of combinations, starting with "\n" only But even so it inserts newline characters, but the resulting tiddler looks (when open for editing) exactly like the original, but the rendered tiddler does not, it doesn't insert the when there are consecutive new-lines Hitting backspace at the start of such a generated newline makes that newline be recognized as such, it seems as if I'm deleting an invisible character I'll post the macro if you're interested in having a look -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.

[tw5] Re: How to correctly insert new-line characters through a setfield widget
To test this, try the following on tiddlywiki.com for example:
put this in some tiddler:
<$button><$action-setfield $tiddler="test" text={{{
[[jsontiddler]getindex[test]] }}}/>Ok
create the tiddler "jsontiddler" with its type set to "application/json"
and put the following inside:
{
"test": "\r\n\r\nhello\r\n\r\nlala\r\n"
}
save and hit the Ok button. the tiddler "test" gets created with the text
from the "test" index, but the new-line characters are actual new-lines
oddly enough, this works correctly. So I'm wondering now what I'm doing
wrong in my macro
