Replace element in list with white space

Post by juanamores »

The list is stored in the cursong variable
Example: if the cursong variable returns: Another&Brick&In&The&Wall&Pink&Floyd
To return: Another Brick In The Wall Pink Floyd
I try:

Code: Select all

set cursong [string map [list "&" " "] $cursong]
But, no work
If you do not understand my ideas is because I can not think in English, I help me with Google Translate. I only speak Spanish. Bear with me. Thanks :)

This does work.

<me> .tcl string map [list "&" " "] "Another&Brick&In&The&Wall&Pink&Floyd"

There was another line in the script that modified the command. :oops:
Both solutions work perfectly

Thank you willyw! :D
