Hello All!
I'm a total newbie to Applescript. I'm able to record and run finder and
other app scripts with the script editor, but as for writing them, I'm just
starting.
I'm looking for a way to clean up text files, from form submissions on the
web. With a simple form, we get something like the following:
name=joe
date=january
comment=I hate forms
I'd like to be able to reformat this stuff, either into a spreadsheet or
table format, possibly several submissions in a document. Take the <category
=xxxxx> out of it altogether. Is this possible with Applescript?
We're working on a Lasso CGI solution, but I'd like to learn more about
Applescript anyway, so thought I'd try to find a solution there, too.
Thanks in advance!
