i want to replace the $ with a red$ and then i need to switch back to the regular text color so it will look like --
hello i spent a lot of $$ at the store today & actually it was about 50 % of my paycheck. --
the script works fine for almost every symbol or word i have replaced just for a few it seems to space them ? i had asked awhile ago on how to make my question marks?? alternate color and i believe it was qwerty who gave me a regsub snippet to do that and in part of the notes there was a statement about removing consecutive control codes so i assumed perhaps that is my problem now ? if you could point me to a tutorial dealing with $regsub or give me a working example of how to use it for this purpose ? its not that the script doesnt work it just it makes this <<<<< look like this < < < < < on further examination i am unsure if it just normal behavior when you apply the bold code to the text ? if so then i apoligize for not realizing this but when you apply thr bold code to the $ symbol the spacing doesnt change between them $$$ still looks like $$$ however <<< comes out looking like < < < hope this makes sense .
