 Posted: Sun Dec 09, 2007 7:17 pm Post subject: help with detecting keywords in text files |
 |
|
i have to detect certain keywords in the text. so far i am doing simple thing, going through text file
in text editor coping line by line of text and comparing contents of clipboard with keywords. Some keywords
are easy to detect like "chapter" but some are harder like roman numbers I. II. III. etc with and without period after the
number, so i need some help with detecting them.
the code i am using now is:
(it is slow but gets things done over night and save me some time, if i could manage to detect those roman numbers
properly that would be great, thanks!)
| Code: |
Loop
{
clipboard=
;pick up the line of text
Send, {Home}
Send, {Shift Down}
Send, {End}
Send, {Shift Up}
Send, ^c
ClipWait, 1
;compare it woth keyword
IfInString, clipboard, %trigger%
{
Send, {Ctrl Down}
Send, {%action%} ;action is hotkey F1 or something else
Send, {Ctrl Up}
Sleep, 500
} else {
Send, {home}
Send, {down}
}
}

| Code: | $File = c:\whatever\whatever.txt ; replace with the path of the text file.
FileAppend, %Clipboard%, %Temp%\tempclip.txt
Loop, Parse, %$File%, `n
{
FileReadLine, Line, %$File%, A_Index
Loop, Parse, Clipboard, `n
{
FileReadLine, ClipLine, %Temp%\tempclip.txt
If (Line == ClipLine)
{
Do whatever
}
}
}
FileDelete, %Temp%\tempclip.txt
Return |

Why can't you do it? I don't understand.

Just need to clarify one thing.
By formatting, you mean coloring/changing font right?
If so, I believe there is a way to append formatted text.

| Code: |
text =
( Join`r`n
I. my text containing some words including some numbers such as roman
II. this is still my text
mumbo jumboII
III. Fin
sugar
IV. real fin
(c) MMVII.
salt
)
re := "S)((M{0,4}(CM|CD|D?C{0,3})(XC|XL|L?X{0,3})(IX|IV|V?I{0,3}))?\.)"
loop, Parse, text, `n, `r
{
Position := RegExMatch(A_LoopField, re)
if !(Position)
MsgBox % A_LoopField "`r`nLine " A_Index ": has no Roman number"
else
MsgBox % A_LoopField "`r`nLine " A_Index ":" Position
}
|
The RegEx matches any found roman number and the msgbox returns its position
This expression has been found here 
greets

edit to check if a roman number is in the text, all you have to do is check if Position is different to 0. in such a case an occurence was found. |
