Struggling a little with the correct use of the clickline. It returns something like "line 3 of field 1" so I would have expected that something like "put the clickline into tLine" would get me the contents of line 3 of field 1, but it gets me "line 3 of field 1".
Is there a way to use the full contents of the clickline? Right now, I'm doing "put line (word 2 of the clickline) of field (word 4 of the clickline) into tLine", but that seems unnecessarily longwinded. I guess I could use "do" and piece together a command but that doesn't seem like a good solution either. Got a related issue with the clickCharChunk. It gets me the overall character number within a field; what I need is the character position within the line of the field. I know there are some indexxxx functions from 5.5 onward but how did people figure this out prior to 5.5?
