I had spent quite a bit of time re-reading the A4D docs on Position and the v11
Docs on Replace String before sending this mail. I had also tried various
permutations of said commands - none of which worked,
Position(inFind; inSource {; inStart {; { *; } { outLengthFound {; * }}}})
->Longint
The optional last * is for bitwise comparison. It makes no difference whether I
run
$pos:=position(char(13);$text;1;$length;*)
or
$pos:=position(char(13);$text)
Replace string (source; oldString; newString{; howMany}{; *}) → String
Likewise the last optional * is for making the evaluation based on character
codes. Again, it doesn't work either with or without the *.
