Hi Klaus :-)
Well I just tried it and it works just fine my way. Doing it the way you suggest just addes more lines of code to the script.
Here is sample code to demonstrate:
on mouseUp put empty into myLineList
put myLineList & "Line1" & return into myLineList put the number of lines in myLineList into myLineCount
put myLineList & "Line2" & return into myLineList put the number of lines in myLineList into myLineCount
put myLineList & "Line1" & return into myLineList put the number of lines in myLineList into myLineCount
if line 1 of myLineList = line 3 of myLineList then beep end if end mouseUp
Will beep and have 3 (?) in myLineCount...
This is very strange!!!
I put myLineList into a field and set its listbehaviour to true...
Guess what! You can select an empty line 4!!!
This avoids the if endif on EVERY append operation performed myLineList as discusseed earlier.
To avoid the case where the last line does not have a terminator, you can do this:
if the last character of the last line of myLineList is not return then
put the last line of myLineList & return into the last line of myLineList
end if
Or shorter:
if char -1 myLineList <> CR then
put CR after myLineList
end ifBut i still don't get the point :-(
...LINES are defined by the "linedelimiter" which is in fact the CR.
If we decide (like you suggested) to use the CR as an itemdelimiter, we would not be
able to differ "lines" anymore, because there is NO linedlimiter anymore to differ them...
So we would have to define another linedelimiter first :-)
And that would be the "END OF THE LINES" like we used to know, and therefore not acceptable :-)
I really don't understand what you mean, but as I say the above sample works just fine, so it's a moot point really!
As is said, this is probably a semantic problem ;-)
...
But it works that way anyway!!!!!!!!!!!!! So by definition it's better!!!!!!!!!!!!
And maybe because i know that it is idle to question things that won't change.
(...in the near and distance future... Just like the way the engine handles lines)
So do I, cos it handles them the way I expected them to be handled!!!!! No need to change anything.
Sorry, don't understand a word..
We are probably talking about the same thing, but from VERY different angles...
Where did you say are you living? ;-)
All the Best Dave
