Hi,
Everything is working fine and dandy but I ran across another issue
here.
Some of the path comes with some extra chars padded at the end.
i.e.
'\\serverName\C:\FolderName1\FolderName2\example.exe' -u ABC -g XYZ
abcdef
Now those padded chars are not constant all the time. It can be
anything.
Only common denometer in each string that comes with those padded chars
is that it is after .exe and then there is space and then 99% of the
time it is -u and then there can be anything, I meant its dynemic after
that.
so I am using string1.find(".exe") and could retrive the index but
don't know how to get rid any garbase after index + 4
