Hi Dough,
The program, I'm working on is feeded from an user.ini file, where the
user can declare various predefined plain or parametered text lines.
These text blocks are listed in a listbox displayed with the
DlgSelectItemInList() function. Here can user select one and it will be
inserted. But if the text wanted to be inserted contains more than 1
line I need the line feeding for begining a new line.
So looks a section in the user.ini file:
[Insertions:1]
Type=4 ;Insert Line (plain text)
LineCount=2
Line1=This is the first line of the inserted multilined plain text.
Line2=This text contains no parameters, just demonstrates the simply
text insertion process. At the end will be a new line inserted.
NewLineAtEnd=1 ; If this key is missing then assumed that user wants no
new line at the end of lines.
The code block for reading ini file is wrapped into a While ... EndWhile
iteration. In the first version - its code do you have seen,- I tried to
play with AppendToClipboard() function, but since then I rewrote the
code and I cummulate the lines in a sTemp variable and if new line is
wanted, then all lines are ended with the "\R\N" (return and new line)
codes. And at the end of the iteration the whole text contained in the
sTemp variable will be inserted with the folloving code:
CopyToClipboard (sText)
PerformScript PasteFromCccclipboard(),
That is what I have written in my previous mail addressed to Paul.
