'The replaceText function is not as fast as the Replace command'

That is certainly true.

in the code below, using the more complicated (in terms of code) replace function takes 20ish milliseconds, whereas the replaceText version (commented out) takes about 200.



on mouseUp
  repeat 10000 -- set up some text with varying numbers of spaces
    add 1 to c
    put "xxxx yyy" into tLine
    repeat random(10)
      put space after tLine
    end repeat
    put "zzzz." after tLine
    put tLine & cr after tList
  end repeat
  put tList into fld 1

  put fld 1 into tText

  put the millisecs into st
  repeat until doubleSpace = 0
    put offset("  ",tText) into doubleSpace
    if doubleSpace > 0 then replace "  " with " " in tText
  end repeat
  put the millisecs - st
  put tText into fld 1

--  put the millisecs into st
--  put replaceText(tText," +"," ") into tText
--  put the millisecs - st
--  put tText into fld 1

end mouseUp
