How? "if necessary" based on what? Do you mean some sort of syntax-driven recognition/parsing? As for the rest, let's pretend that "a function name" is the letter #"F" followed by one or more digits. Here's some sample data: 8<----------begin morelines.txt---------- blah blah F123 blah blah blah F45 blah blah yadda yadda F678 yadda yadda F123 yadda F678 bloop bloop bloop F bloop tada tada tada tada dum da dum dum F123 F9 dum da dum dum 8<----------morelines.txt ended---------- and here's the script that does what you described: 8<----------begin morelines.r---------- REBOL [] morelines: make object! [ names: [] digits: charset "0123456789" fnamerule: [#"F" some digits] run: func [fi [file!] fo [file!]] [ names: copy [] foreach line read/lines fi [ parse/all line [ any [ copy name fnamerule ( if not found? find names name [ append names name ] ) | skip ] ] ] write/lines fo sort unique names ] ] 8<----------morelines.r ended---------- after saying this at the console:
>> morelines/run %morelines.txt %morelines2.txt
we have 8<----------begin morelines2.txt---------- F123 F45 F678 F9 8<----------morelines2.txt ended---------- -jn- -- ; Joel Neely joeldotneelyatfedexdotcom REBOL [] do [ do func [s] [ foreach [a b] s [prin b] ] sort/skip do function [s] [t] [ t: "" foreach [a b] s [repend t [b a]] t ] { | e s m!zauafBpcvekexEohthjJakwLrngohOqrlryRnsctdtiub} 2 ]
