Kay, in cases like that, it's worth knowing about the 'token' chunk.
The docs give the lowdown...

test various solutions to determine the fastest, so you seem to be

On a slightly different note, I would like to hilight a gotcha when
working
with the 'word' keyword in Rev. One may assume that in "Help,
please?" word
1 is 'Help' and word 2 or word -1 is 'please', but this is not the
case. As
fully explained in the Docs a word is whatever is between one or more
spaces, tabs, cr or quotes. So in the above case the words are
'Help,' and
'please?' ie including punctuation. Which of course is no good if
you are
testing for an exact match to 'Help' or 'please'.
I had a script that scoured pages of text that appeared to randomly
fail to
find certain key terms. It was extremely rare and took ages to
track down as
it only occured when the key terms were followed by a punctuation
mark and
therefore failed to match and trigger the desired script.
HTH someone.

Hi list,
In the following loops :
repeat for each line j in myVar
repeat for each word w in last item of j
end repeat
end repeat
is "last item of j" evaluated every time the 'repeat for each word w"
loop runs ?
I'm asking, because when trying the following :
repeat for each line j in myVar
get last item of j
repeat for each word w in it
end repeat
end repeat
it gets about 20% faster...
Thanks,
JB
