Working with text

[Helixanon]

Hello. I get the raw text from the control using this code.

ControlGetText($consoleHandle, "", "Edit2")

However, I only need the last lines, thus I am forced to write all this text into the file and then read the latest lines from the file itself.

FileWrite($path, ControlGetText($consoleHandle, "", "Edit2"))
For $i = 0 To ($linesToCheck - 1) Step +1
    $string = FileReadLine($path, _FileCountLines($path) - $i)
    ...
Next

Is there any way I can work with the text returned by ControlGetText directly w/o writing it to a file?

I searched for some TextManagement UDF but didn't find any.

Thanks in advance.

How about using:

StringSplit

Then use Ubound to get the last line (array element)

Omg, I'm feeling really dumb right now xD

I can't understand how come I didn't think about splitting by @CRLF delimiter.

It's pretty much what I need, big thanks.
