Subject: QuickReplace. XFCN for HyperCard & SuperCard
QuickReplace is an XFCN that allows you to find and replace all
occurences of a string in any valid HyperCard/SuperCard container
(variable, field). QuickReplace is case-sensitive and, unlike HyperCard,
distinguishes between accented characters (diacriticals) and their
non-accented counterparts
(for example: é<>e; ñ<>n, etc.).
QuickReplace will find and replace strings up to 255 characters in
length. If an optional fourth parameter is set to "TRUE", QuickReplace
will also return the number of "replacements" performed.
QuickReplace will also find and replace non-printing characters such as
carriage returns, tabs and line-feeds (see "Tips" below).
QuickReplace is provided as "AnyWare." That is, if you use it, please
let me know by sending "Anything" you have cluttering up your desktop: a
poem you've written, a picture of your dog, a program you've developed,
money, a postcard from your hometown etc. - just something to let me know
that my programs are being used and that they're not gathering cyberdust in
a virtual warehouse somewhere. (Please don't send any America On-line disks
though, the 3000 or so that I already have should see me through!)
Any commercial use of QuickReplace must be licensed and approved by the
author.
