Hi,
Please check the help page of action
Script (or on the website here:
http://automagic4android.com/en/help/co ... ion_script).
Following functions could be useful:
- Boolean contains(String s, String search)
- Number indexOf(String s, String search)
- Number indexOf(String s, String search, Number start)
- String replaceAll(String s, String regex, String replacement)
Regards,
Martin

Use:
Code: Select all
List split(String s, String pattern)
Splits the string s into a list of strings by using the regular expression pattern as the delimiter. (see Regular expressions.)
See
Action script and search for it

The help page of action script also contains a link to a page with some examples:
http://automagic4android.com/automagic/ ... mples.html
The examples
Create a list of lines from a multiline text and
Create a list of words should be helpful.
