Hi Len,
My code was just an example. Words can only refer to real words indeed, but I
believe you have already figured out how to reference the parameters. Just
replace that part of my code with whatever you deem right. Perhaps something
like repeat with x = 1 to number of chars step 2.

Hi,
Is LiveCode 5.0.2 able to read binary data from an external? I thought this was

That is possible. The craziness is that the trailing cr affects the result even

the filtered text. If there isn't, then the result will

Interesting, and it kinda makes sense. For elements, there's no
positioning required like with lines/words/item, just a case of cycling
through the keys - which is what repeat for each line x in the keys of
