Re: sentences as items

You can do it one of two ways. I am using .rtf files and reading them in at run-time so that I have styled text. What I first did was use the command "set the clipboardData["text"] to NumToChar(160)" in the Rev Message Box. Then I opened my text editor and pasted where necessary. It worked well

Re: sentences as items

Chris, let me abuse your kindness one last time. Your solution is exactly what I need, but what's still not clear to me is the very first step. Once I know how to insert the special character, it will be pretty trivial to to a search and replace in BBEdit and make sure that all sentences end

Re: sentences as items

Well, first let me say that I am very new to Revolution. It just so happens that I was working on a similar problem yesterday, and this is how I solved it. So I thought I'd share it. :-) It is entirely possible that there is a better solution. As far as inserting these characters, you can do i

Re: sentences as items

Thanks a lot, Chris. I think that's exactly what I need. But, pardon my ignorance: how do you insert these special characters? Also, if you're using Unicode and you set the useUnicode to true, is there a corresponding Unicode character that does the same trick and that I could then use in bot

Re: sentences as items

I don't know if this will work with itemDelimiter, but I used this trick in version 2.0 with the new lineDelimiter property. It worked well. What I did was put a special character at the end of each sentence (NumToChar(160) on Windows and NumToChar(202) on Mac). This character looks just like a

How can I make Revolution count each sentence in a field as an item -- so that I can then easily manipulate whole sentences as item 1, item 2 etc. In other words is there a magical way to make several characters ("." "?" "!") count as the same itemDelimiter? All best, Toma
