Monarch 9460 manual K E N, Token Delimeter character , invalid label , valid label

T O K E N

Purpose	Sets a token delimiter or extracts a token-delimited sub-field from a larger field.
Syntax	To set a token delimiter:
		TOKEN DELIMETER character [ , [ invalid label ] [, valid label ] ]
	To extract a sub-field:
		TOKEN buffer-field1,buffer-field2 [ , [ invalid label ] [, valid label ] ]
Process	The TOKEN command sets character as the token delimiter or extracts a sub-field
	from buffer-field1(delimited by character) and places it in buffer-field2.
	Subsequent calls to this command using the same fields returns the next sub-
	string. You must set the delimiter before extracting sub-fields (the default is a
	comma).
	Character, buffer-field1 and buffer-field2 can be one of the following:
		Character, buffer-field1			Description
		and buffer-field2
		INPUT			Input Buffer
		Logical Field Name			Temporary Buffer
		(TEMP1)			Field
		Logical Field Name (LU1)			Lookup Buffer Field
		Logical Field Name (PR1)			Printer Buffer Field
		Logical Field Name			Array Buffer Field
		(Field1) [Index]
		SCRATCH			Scratch Buffer Field
		String			An ASCII string
					delimited by double
					quotes
		Number			A number prefixed by
					a number sign (#)
Optional Fields Invalid and valid labels are discussed in "Script Flow" at the beginning of this
	chapter. The exception is as follows:
Example	This example sets the token delimiter to *. Then, it extracts the strings PAXAR and
	CORPORATION from TASOURCE and moves them to the printer’s screen one at a
	time.
		MOVE	“PAXAR*CORPORATION”,			TASOURCE
		TOKEN	DELIMITER,	“*”
	*GETTOKEN			TATOKEN,		*DONE
		TOKEN	TASOURCE,
		MOVE	TATOKEN, DISPLAY
		JUMP	*GETTOKEN
	*DONE
