... Hi Howard, sorry I didn't reply to this earlier. That's almost correct. No ElfData refers to another ElfData. But they can both refer to the same string,...
Hi Theo. Thanks for the feedback. :) ... Well, in the case of moving the cursor after inserting some text -- my thinking was that the inserted text was just...
... Just for your benefit, as that was part of your question "Do I understand how ElfData works or not?"... YES... you understand it correctly. Splitting an...
... I'm not sure why you need to concatenate all the text just to move the cursor? I think it would be wasteful! Moreso than just... moving though each...
Hey Theo. Me again. :) I want to write a text editor and I'm exploring my options on what to use to build my text-buffer system. Instead of creating a...
Just a record so you know what's happening with REALsoftware and me... And this is after I'm putting out nice little bits of code to help people recently. Not...
Hi everyone, If you downloaded ElfData v5.44 before this message has arrived, I actually did not fix it 100%. So I fixed it properly and reuploaded it. If you...
I fixed a bug in FastString.AppendHex! This bug must have been around for years before I noticed it yesterday. I guess I never passed "6" as a number for it to...

So... I wanted my latest app (called SubX), to have "proxy icons" in the window. That's the little cool thing that let's you right click on the window title,...
So... here's a handy little function to read UTF-8 out of text files. It should handle UTF-8, Latin-1, UTF-16 (LE and BE), and UTF-32. It should work despite...
Hi Howard, I see the confusion here. In fact it was my fault. I wrote this: "By passing the optional "Length" parameter, you can find out how long was the text...
Hi Howard, I'm always happy to hear questions in fact I wish more people would ask questions instead of just giving up ;) MSR.Search's techref is wrong, good...
Hi Theo. More questions. :) The reference says that MSR.Search() returns an ElfData, but the example suggests that it really returns an Integer -- the number...
Hi Howard, Actually... this is one question even I asked myself recently, despite knowing that it is in there somewhere... It's not entirely obvious. ...
Hi Theo. I'm trying to figure out how you delete individual nodes from a RingTree. Your reference mentions no explicit Delete methods. I assume that simply...
In case anyone is interested in new projects that I'm up to... I'm making a little app to create srt files. What are srt files? They are subtitle files for...
Hi Howard, setting .UTF does NO data conversion. It is just a flag. If you want to convert data, use ElfData.ConvertTo You can set the property to 0 if you...
I have a question about ElfData's UTF property. The reference says: UTF as Integer -- get/set Sets the format to the format passed. Accepts 8, 16, or 32. If...
Hi Theo. Sorry I didn't reply earlier. I just (1) reloaded your elfdata.com/rb page in Safari and (2) uploaded your file onto my own site with a test folder....
Hi Theo. (1) This does look useful. I'll have to upload this and see how well I can get it to work as part of a WordPress blog. :) (2) You might want to add a...
http://elfdata.com/rb/ OK, so this works really nicely! One self-contained php file that does everything, even allow you to download it's own source code. It...
Hi everyone, In order to help myself and help the RB community at the same time, I've decided I'm going to write a handy little php script. What this will do,...

So, I added optional case insensitivity to ElfDataTokeniser. In fact it's a little more advanced than that. It's not just ASCII case insensitivity. Because...
