RE: Filling an array from the first occurrence on down

Dennis,

Of course, you could pass the line length and DIM values into
compressArray
- then you wouldn't monkeying with global variables, you'd just be
calling
it as e.g.:

compressArray( %addr(line) : %len(line) : %elem(line) );

Frankly, that would be quite a nice little procedure - one to add to
the ole
toolkit...

OK, I had missed that. Sorry. But as promised....

I did not get around the double loop as I had thought to do

originally, but

I hope it demonstrates the possibilities and efficiencies of the

approach.

Also, this violates my standard of not monkeying around with global
variables within a procedure without notice. But for the sake of
demonstration, I give you: http://code.midrange.com/e38eb36856.html
