Re: List Words from Textarea
Welcome Raz. Pierre's script gives you one good answer. When I read your email, I assumed you wanted to list each word - but avoid duplicates. To do that, you would change the script slightly, to on mouseup set the wholeMatches to true repeat for each word w in fld "myfield" if w is not among the lines of mywordslist then put w& cr after mywordslist end repeat answer mywordslist end mouseup -- Alex.

Re: List Words from Textarea
Caution with this solution. The definition of a 'word' for LiveCode is not what you would normally think. Spaces are not the only white space, and punctuation that is attached to the word is included as part of a word.

Jacqi, forgive me for questioning/doubting you, but I really have trouble believing that, what with the literally thousands of scripts I wrote in HC over a period of nearly 20 years. I just don't remember having to strip commas from words when parsing and sorting text. If you say so, but why would Jim have had to point that out if it is the "normal" way of doing things?

RE: List Words from Textarea
Thank you guys to all of you for help & sugeestions. The basic idea was to enter on a Textarea some URLs, clicking on a Start Button to open in that application to every 15 seconds every URL from that list. Clicking on a Stop button, to stop that process. First part I've made it with your help, now I have to check how can I open (embedd) an website in the application. Any suggestions? Thank you again.

(smile) One of the difficulties with using HyperCard as a basis for any comparison is that Apple killed it so long ago that it's tied in our memory to the feelings of youth: we forget so much and remember only the good times. :) IIRC, Scott Raney sighed with deep resignation more than a few times at having to implement word delineation using HC rules. Punctuation isn't so bad; it's easy to strip those out as stop characters. More challenging, at least conceptually in some cases, is working with quoted strings, which are treated as a single word no matter how many words are between the quotes. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World LiveCode training and consulting: http://www.fourthworld.com Webzine for LiveCode developers: http://www.LiveCodeJournal.com LiveCode Journal blog: http://LiveCodejournal.com/blog.irv ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Put this in the message box in any version of Rev or MC, as early as you have versions for them: get "However, this is an example." put word 1 of it && last word of it You should see: However, example. I think Jim pointed it out because the OP was new to LiveCode and the behavior isn't intuitive.
