PHP Code


<?php 
static void Main(string[] args)
      {
      string message = "this message!";
      Console.WriteLine(message.Remove(message.Length - 1));
      Console.Read();
      } 


Just use that snippet in the handler for the backspace keycode.

Function:

Code

Function RemoveBackspaces(text As String, search As String) As String
      Dim Index, Count As Integer

      While True
      Index = text.IndexOf(search)
      Count = Math.Min(Index, 1)

      If Index = -1 Then
      Exit While
      End If

      text = text.Remove(Index - Count, search.Length + Count)
      End While

      Return text
    End Function

Usage:

Code

Dim Source As String = "[back]14[back][back][back][back]23135[back]7[back]"
      Dim Text As String = RemoveBackspaces(Source, "[back]")

If you wants to mutate strings, you should use a mutable string instead of the normal static string, in order to gain speed and reduce memory usage, which is quite a must if you are mutating a large string.
