[Newbies] Parsing and splitting file contents

[Herbert König]

Hi,

ru> I am reading a tab delimited file into a string.  I want to
ru> iterate through this string and split by tab, or any other defined
ru> value (, . | # tab, cr, etc.), delimiter into substrings which are
ru> assigned to a Collection (Array, Dictionary, Bag, etc.), or

String>>findTokens is your friend here.

And FileStream>>contentsOfEntireFile gets the whole file into a string
before you find the tokens. But I'd prefer to read the file one line
at a time into a collection of strings.


Cheers,

Herbert
