[Gambas-user] Unable to split string containing ascii characters

[Caveat]

You're asking the wrong question.  What you meant to ask was whether
anyone thought it necessary to include that functionality in the
language itself.

Splitting your string on "AE" is easily done, for example:

  DIM aString AS String
  DIM strings AS String[]
  aString =
"AE300AE318AE65AEBuddiesAE302AE319AE300AE319AE7AEclassybabe27_742AE301AE319AE303AE319AE301AE318AE300AE318AE65AEFriendsAE302AE319AE300AE319AE7AEleet.spikeAE301AE319AE303AE319AE301AE318AE303AE318AEAE300AE312AE313AE2AE314AE0AE301AE312AE300AE312AE313AE6AE314AE - 1 AE301AE312AE300AE312AE313AE4AE314AE0AE301AE312AE300AE312AE313AE8AE314AE1AE301AE312AE300AE312AE313AE9AE314AE900AE301AE312AE303AE312AE"
  aString = Replace(aString, "AE", "{")
  strings = Split(aString, "{")
  FOR EACH aString IN strings
    PRINT aString
  NEXT

We are a friendly bunch here on the Gambas user list, please try and
keep it that way, even if sometimes a particular problem frustrates you.

Also please don't forget that the Gambas language is a labour of love
and that it's FREE, before you ask for your money back ;-)

Kind regards,
Caveat
