You realize the issue, don't you?

Keys which are in the aeut or an aete are stored as the 4 character constant...

Yep.

So here's what I reckon is the simplest approach to it. Regular expressions ought to be findable to catch all possibilities. With contributions from all perly parties, we might work out a solid routine...

Test by adding sabotaging items to the record and adding regexes at the place indicated, to deal with them.


set rez_ to {_KEY_1_:{"a", 3.87, name, ""}, _KEY_2_:2, _KEY_3_:"hello", _KEY_4_:{current date, 3 / 77}, _KEY_5_:{"oooo", string}, _KEY_6_:"a:b:c"}
-------------
getkeys(rez_)
-------------
on getkeys(r)
try
"" & r
on error s
end try
set fU to "/tmp/rez"
set f to POSIX file fU
open for access f with write permission
set eof f to 0
write s to f
close access f
read f
do shell script "perl -e '
$f = qq~" & fU & "~ ;
open F, $f ;
$_ = <F> ;
s~[^\\{]+\\{(.+)\\}[^\\}]+$~$1~g ; q% remove error stuff %;
q( print the string for reference );
print qq~String is:-$/$/$_$/$/Test items follow. ~ ;
print qq ~Find the pattern:-$/$/~ ;

@ary = split /:/ ;
for (@ary) {
$i++ ;
if ($i eq 1) {
print qq~$_ /* must be OK */~ ;
print $/ ;
} else {
q% ...................................................% ;
q% W R I T E Y O U R R E G E X E S H E R E % ;
q% ....................................................% ;
print ;
print $/ ;
}
}
'"
end getkeys
