Reading sign keys inverted.

[RapD]

Hello.
I'm make my software to read \ write a txt file from a Input to a specific folder.

How can i make the letters "!@#$%^&*()_+.," save in the TXT file in inverted?

I want to make something like this:
I write in the input the text: Hello!
And its save the TXT file like this: !Hello

Hi. Well I can help by describing the method, but I'm sorry I don't have time to provide an example right now... Anyhow you would want to:

1. Extract all characters from your "special character" pool from the main text block into a table (array), making sure to also record which position each character was in using a parallel table.

2. Reverse the order of table containing your special characters.

3. Re-insert those characters back into the main text block according to the positions recorded in step 1.

Hope that helps.

Sound great but i dont knew how..
I hope that you give me a simple example when you have the time :yes

[Corey]

Let me see what I can come up with... :yes

Hi. OK here's a project which will reverse the order of the characters from a character pool you enter, within any string you enter. Bear in mind I only tested it a little bit. The actions are all on the button's OnClick event. This is just one possible way of doing it, and my code is not as elegant as it could be but I wrote it so that it would be obvious what's going on at a glance. Note that I didn't set it up to clear the fields, etc. so you have to restart it each try to be sure it's clearing everything out and working 100%. Sorry, I was in a rush.

Hope that helps. :yes

Corey, i write in the "Enret Text" "Hello!"
I wirite in the "Enter Characters To Reverse:" "!", i click on the button and its don't working.
The result come out the same text i was writing.

Well sure, you didn't put anything in for it to reverse the exclamation point with. It only reverses the characters from the pool. Add an "o" to the pool.

If you are looking for a script which looks for words which end in special characters and then flips those characters to the other side of the word, that's a different thing. But this example will get you started on the path to creating that nonetheless. The same general flow applies, it's quite easy once you give it a try. :yes

I mean for every end of the line "if" the user write the one of the letters "!@#$^&*..." so it be like this:

in the end of! the line!
!in the end of! the line

[Corey]

In the string, "in the end of! the line!" how would you know which exclamation point is supposed to be "the end of the line"?

Maybe this'll help

tblCatchChars = {"!","@","#","$","%","^","&","*","(",")","_","+",".",","}
tblTXTFile = TextFile.ReadToTable("Autoplay\\Docs\\test.txt")
for lines = 1, Table.Count(tblTXTFile) do
	for chars=1, Table.Count(tblCatchChars) do
		if String.Right(tblTXTFile[lines], 1) == tblCatchChars[chars] then
			tblTXTFile[lines] = tblCatchChars[chars] .. String.Left(tblTXTFile[lines], String.Length(tblTXTFile[lines]) -1)
		end
	end
end

txtOut = Table.Concat(tblTXTFile, "\r\n", 1, Table.Count(tblTXTFile))

Dialog.Message("Result", txtOut)

Cool! many thanks!
can you make it for me to all of the marks like this:

magfgfg%#@!
%#@!magfgfg

Hi. Sorry I can't build it, but this thread has a bunch of great stuff to help you get started, and I'll be happy to assist you in correcting your script as you go along. I encourage you to get in there and give it a try. It's fun! If you have any questions as you are writing your first script please feel free to ask and I'll be happy to assist.

I agree with Corey (and this goes for pretty much anything in life)... give it a serious try. Then if you have a problem show us the code area or the project (or a mockup of the project) and we will help to try and get it working for you.

:yes
