Need help editting a function

[Fewmitz]

Thanks for the very valuable help guys.

Because you know, nowhere in my post did it say that I was MAKING something illegal.

Anyway.

Say I have a text file, right?

Maybe an essay, what have you.

And if a part of it looks like this:

This is how we do it

I don't believe you

Why not?

Cause I said so

Oh yes

How could I copy from "I don't believe you" to "Cause I said so"?

wow dude, you say "keylogger" twice and "illegal" twice. Im sure you are aware that you can be banned for a post like this. Please modify your post quickly for your own sake.

Not trying to be a dick here, just think you might not have been aware of this.

So if I knew part of the contents of the file, could I possibly set it to copy from one line to another?

Yes you can, it's possible.

Could I just change the function above to copy from "this is the beginning" to "This is the End"?

You could if you want.

In a previous thread

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...st&p=408089

I decompiled it from an exe

I found out (once again thanks to one of the members on here) that when it was decompiled, an external script, hence the "file instal" at the beginning. To get this file I need to, apparently

And I have an idea of what this means, but no idea how to do it.

.... and

Yes, it is.

There is historically very little sympathy on this forum for people trying to decompile and rework the scripts of others.

I agree with salty and dan!!!

IT's good to know you actually tracked my posts in order to undermine me.

I wasn't making a keylogger, I was trying to make it...not a keylogger, ergo, I wasn't breaking any rules.

"How could I copy from "I don't believe you" to "Cause I said so"? "

do you know the lines "I don't believe you" and "Cause I said so" -OR- are you copying from Line X to Line Y?

[DW1]

The following assumes you have a file named "textfile.txt" on the root of C:\ with the following contents:

This is how we do it

I don't believe you

Why not?

Cause I said so

Oh yes

If you knew that you wanted take everything before the line "Oh yes", This would work:

GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "_readfile" )

The last one was the one I meant, sorry for not being clearer.

[Fewmitz]

Okay cool, that worked great, but now I have another question:

If I had those lines buried in a text file in a random place on my computer, is there a way to search the computer for them?

Like, for example, if I knew that the text file was in a folder called "potato", but it might be in one of the folders in "Potato". is there a function to search through that folder to find the text file?

[SmOke_N]

_FileListToArray() + FileGetAttrib() to make sure it's a Directory... Possibly even _PathSplit() if you want to separate the Directories... but I don't think that would be necessary.

[Fewmitz]

I'll have to look into that, but I was actually lying, cause I have another question.

What I need to do now is take some text, and make a text file with this text in it. I looked around and couldn't find anything useful, so does anyone here know how to do it?

Keep looking... kind of obvious questions... it's becoming apparent you aren't trying very hard.

Or I'm trying hard, just looking in the wrong place.

Edit: Nevermind, I'm just dumb >_>
