Hi,
is there any object that allows a more extended manipulation of symbols? For example, I have symbols with the format 1234-56-78_12-23.aaa, and I wanted to get only the floats inside, and use them on mathematics. For now, the only way I see to do that is to use several [splitfilename -], until all the individual elements are separated. Or is it possible to do that with sprintf?
hmm, sprintf is usually for the other way round. you would need scanf...
anyhow, [symbol2list -] will split your symbol into " 1234, 56, 78_12-23.aaa" so it's a bit more comfortable than [splitfilename].
