User Notes Whitespace

[raybob]

Constant use of {.set account|n|notes key=a=b.} seems to fill up the user notes with huge amounts of whitespace.

Can someone else see if this happens to them also?

Yea i checked that and experienced the same problem, for every call a whitespace is added,

You can trim all the existing out by using

Code: [Select]

{.set account|$1|notes={.decodeuri|{.replace|%0A%0D||{.encodeuri|{.trim|{.get account|$1|notes.}.}.}.}.}.}

and to avoid it u have to set the entire notes again, but trimmed
ieither by adding a line after every call or adding an alias and using it instead , like :

Code: [Select]

[special:alias|private]
addnote={.set account|$1|notes key=$2=$3.}{.set account|$1|notes={.trim|{.get account|$1|notes.}.}.}

Very nice!!  That works perfectly for removing whitespace.  I just put it in my sign in and sign out scripts so it's done once in a while for each account and will keep hfs.ini from expanding exponentially.  

I created my own ^notes function which is simpler to use and put your function in there so that my notes are always nice and tidy

the bug is clearly in this line
replace(s, val, i, findEOL(s,i));

in file utillib.pas:2740
sadly i cannot compile HFS at the moment, i will just put this in the to-do list.

Glad you figured it out.  Here's the function I'm using:

Code: [Select]

{.set|notes|{:{.if|$3|{:{.set account|$1|notes key=$2=$3.}{.set account|$1|notes={.decodeuri|{.replace|%0A%0D||{.encodeuri|{.trim|{.get account|$1|notes.}.}.}.}.}.}:}.}{.if|{.and|$2|{.not|$3.}|{.not|$4.}.}|{:{.get account|$1|notes key=$2.}:}.}{.if|{.and|$2|{.not|$3.}|$4.}|{:{.set account|$1|notes={.decodeuri|{.replace|%0A%0D||{.encodeuri|{.trim|{.replace|$2={.^notes|$1|$2.}||{.get account|$1|notes.}.}.}.}.}.}.}:}.}:}.}

{.^notes|username|key.}            expands to its value
{.^notes|username|key|value.}    writes a new value
{.^notes|username|key||true.}    erases the key
