String help

How can i strip a string of everything after a given delimiter such as whitespace?

something like

$test = "thisis aTest"

$test2 = function($test, " ")

$test2 would = "thisis"

is there a builtin function for this or would i need to make some kind of parser

Its all in the help file...

$test = "thisis aTest"

$pos = StringInStr($test," ")

$test2 = StringLeft($test, $pos - 1)

MsgBox(0,"",$test2)

Nice one even if you meant to do it, and I'm typically not a fan of puns. Also, don't forget that you can combine your function calls:

$test = "thisis aTest"
$test2 = StringLeft($test,StringInStr($test," ") - 1)
MsgBox(0,"output",$test2)

More solutions:

$test = "thisis aTest"
$test2 = StringRegExpReplace($test, "\s.*$", "")
MsgBox(0,"output",$test2)
