Subject:TIP: Copying sample scripts from the Forums

Depending on how the scripts are formatted, a copy/paste from a forum post into Sound Forge script editor may paste as a single line that cannot compile.

This is because the forum post contains linefeeds that the editor window cannot auto-magically convert to carriage returns.

To fix this problem, first paste your text into another editor. Replace linefeeds with carriage returns, then copy/paste into the script editor.

I use Word for my text replacements. The special character for linefeed is ^l (carat + lowercase L). The special character for carriage return is ^p (carat and lowercase P).

Quick update: this copy/paste problem is an issue with the Internet Explorer browser, but not FireFox.
