It is being used by a company which does a lot of text processing. (Though I don't know if that is a good reccomendation or not). The method I used is explained in the brief documentation -http://www.rebol.org/documentation.r?script=str-enc-utils.r]. The rules could be used to create a LiveCode function.PeterPS Sorry for top posting, I'm replying from a mobile app.
Peter,
Thank you. While I would have loved to see this as a LC script for
comparison to my own routine, this is the sort of replies I was looking
for. Other routines I could compare mine to for seeking possible
improvements in my own code.
