Imagine, if you will, a field containing a fairly long string of
unicodeText . . .
Now, some of the characters in the field (let's call it fld "FIRST") are
in the wrong order . . .
And, we want to find the ones that are in the wrong places and move them
into the right places
let's say in fld "SECOND" . . .
Now, my problem is that I can envisage this sort of script:
on mouseUp
if the unicodeText in fld "FIRST" contains (numToChar(57888) &
numToChar(57999)) then
--- do something terribly clever that changes their order in the
unicodeText and
--- puts the whole unicodeText into fld "SECOND"
end if
end mouseUp
but for the life of me I can't work out how to swap the chars round;
this is extremely easy to do with
non-unicode text:
on mouseUp
put "CHEESE" into fld "THIRD"
replace "EE" with "A" in fld "THIRD"
end mouseUp
this:
on mouseUp
set the useUnicode to true
if the unicodeText of fld "FIRST" contains (numToChar(57888) &
numToChar(57999)) then
replace the unicodeText(numToChar(57888) & numToChar(57999)) with
the unicodeText(numToChar(57999) & numToChar(57888)) in fld "FIRST"
end if
end mouseUp
does not work.
And this:
on mouseUp
set the useUnicode to true
if the unicodeText of fld "FIRST" contains (numToChar(57888) &
numToChar(57999)) then
replace (numToChar(57888) & numToChar(57999)) with
(numToChar(57999) & numToChar(57888)) in fld "FIRST"
end if
end mouseUp
de-unicodes the text in fld "FIRST, so I end up with a string of boxes.
