ParseString Output Format

Hi,

Can someone help me with this request?

I want to get the following result "44.44 55.55 66.66 77.77" but I get this one instead " \"44.44 55.55 66.66 77.77\"\n"

***The input:***
space_1_x_space: "44.44 55.55 66.66 77.77"
space_1_y_space: 0.0

***The Program:***
while( gets(inLine inPort)
inList=parseString(inLine ":" )
mem1=car( inList)
mem2=cadr( inList)

case( mem1
     ("space_1_x_space" space_1_x_t = mem2
  outPort=outfile( "Report")
  fprintf( outPort "%L" space_1_x_t)

Thanks in advance

Change your %L to %s.

Your "Break Character" for the parseString is the ":" character, the string "space_1_x_space" preceeds it and the " \"44.44 etc succeeds it. The space and double quote are part of the resulting string, hence the " \"44.44 etc and the \"\n" at the end. You could try changing the case test to include the ":" and trailing space and set the Break Character to "\"" - you need the "\" to "escape" the double quote; or have parseString run again on the mem2 variable with "\"" as the Break Character, that should get the "car" set to the desired string.
