padding
|
Ok so what is the function used in zMud that is equivilent to MM's @Pad(Right/Left)? If you don't know what I'm talking about, it's the function that allows you to pad one side of a string with a number of any one character. For instance: In MM, it would be @PadRight(test,"=",5) and it would show the following.
=====test |

We will do better. A single function, that guesses which way you want to pad based on input lengths.
#FUNCTION Pad {%if(%len(%1)<%len(%2),%repeat("%1",%3)"%2","%1"%repeat("%2",%3))}
Usage:
#ECHO @Pad("abc","3",7)
Displays:
abc3333333
#ECHO @Pad("3","abc",7)
Displays:
3333333abc |
