How to append newline to a block

[1/3] from: carlos:lorenz:gm:ail at: 23-Apr-2009 13:55

Hi list, I have a block full of strings I want to save to a file using SAVE. Then when my user opens the file using notepade.exe he must see something like this: string 1 string 2 string 3 Which is the best way to append a newline at the end of each string without having to show the user the newline char #"^/" ? Thanks for any help -- Carlos Lorenz Unidade Lorenz Ltda www.revistaeletronica.com.br (11) 4034 1971 (11) 7100 1540 pessoal

Does this do what you want? blk: ["a" "b" "c"] new-line/all blk 1 save %temp.tmp a print read %temp.tmp a b c Sunanda

Late answer to your question, Carlos, but if each of your strings resembles exactly one line in the desired output, you'd normally want to use WRITE/LINES:

>>help write

USAGE: WRITE destination value /binary /string /direct /append /no-wait /lines /part size /with end-of-line /allow access /mode args /custom params DESCRIPTION: Writes to a file, url, or port-spec (block or object). WRITE is a native value. : REFINEMENTS: : /lines -- Handles data as lines. : So, just WRITE/LINES %temp.tmp blk HTH, Christian Sunanda schrieb:
