Re: Find & Replace

[[-hh]]

A simple (quick and dirty) non-regex solution (use LC 7 or LC 8)

on mouseUp
    put replaceMyThings(fld 1) into fld 2
end mouseUp

function replaceMyThings LL
  set itemdelimiter to "set the unicodeText of fld "& \ 
        quote&"fPROC"&quote&" to numToCodePoint(" 
  repeat for each line L in LL
    put item 2 of L into L2
    if L2 is empty then put cr & L after MM
    else
      put cr & "put numToCodePoint(" & L2 & \
            " into fld "&quote&"fPROC"&quote after MM
    end if
  end repeat
  return char 2 to -1 of MM
end replaceMyThings
