Remove Character From End Of Lines

[MusoCity]

I need to remove all | that are at the end of a line however many lines there are from a string:

[SSSSSS]
|test1|test2|test1|test2|test1|test2|
|test7|test7|test9||test7|test7|test9|
[EEEEE}

result
[SSSSSS]
|test1|test2|test1|test2|test1|test2
|test7|test7|test9||test7|test7|test9
[EEEEE}

[BoBo]

Code: Select all

str := "
(
[SSSSSS]
|test1|test2|test1|test2|test1|test2|
|test7|test7|test9||test7|test7|test9|
)"

For key, val in StrSplit(str,"`n")
	res .= RTrim(val,"|") "`n"
MsgBox % res

HTH

It works with you example buts it's not working when I read the text file String

FileRead, String, %Filename%

[Hardcoder]

Does your Textfile have trailing whitespaces?
Or line endings don't match?

Try this RegEx approach, it works on example data:

Code: Select all

SampleText := "
(
[SSSSSS]
|test1|test2|test1|test2|test1|test2|
|test7|test7|test9||test7|test7|test9|
[EEEEE}
)"

MsgBox, % RegExReplace(SampleText, "m`a)\|$")

/* Output:

[SSSSSS]
|test1|test2|test1|test2|test1|test2
|test7|test7|test9||test7|test7|test9
[EEEEE}

 */

Thanks, that worked. The last one worked with the text string in the script but not when copied to the text file.

That's named GIGO. Not knowing that you've to rename the var from 'String' to 'str' so it'll work, is like blaming the soup while using a fork
And yes, you should attach your sample input file to this thread, so your supporters won't have to guess constantly. Thx for listening
BTW, what's the reason that this [EEEEE} is using a trailing curly brace, while [SSSSSS] isn't?

So I can't have

Code: Select all

For key, val in StrSplit(String,"`n")
	res .= RTrim(val,"|") "`n"
MsgBox % res

I have to have ?

Code: Select all

For key, val in StrSplit(str,"`n")
	res .= RTrim(val,"|") "`n"
MsgBox % res
