Storing multi-line string

[modernes]

Hi,

I created a script that generates an email message, but I'm stuck as how to store the signature. I tried to save the signature in an ini file, but because there is more than one line in the signature, the iniread function only reads the first line. Any ideas?

$siggy = "Line 1" & @CRLF & "line 2" & @crlf & "line3" & @crlf & "line 4"
;do w/e

$siggy would look like this in an email or a txt file:

line 1

line 2

line3

line 4

--hope this helps

You could store it with delimiter then do StringSplit to read.

The problem is that the user is inputting the multi-line string into an editbox field and I need to store it somehow.

Joon gave a good idea here for you modernes.

$String = StringReplace(GUICtrlRead($Edit1), @LF, Chr(01))
IniWrite('FilePath', 'Section', 'Key', $String)

On extraction:

$sSplit = StringSplit(IniRead('FilePath', 'Section', 'Key', 'Not Found'), Chr(01))
$TestTheory = ''
For $i = 1 To Ubound($sSplit) - 1
    $TestTheory = $TestTheory & $sSplit[$i] & @LF
Next
MsgBox(0, 'Testing', $TestTheory)

Untested, and typed in the forum box...
