Description

This is another simple string which outputs the 1st part of a string (before a specified character) and outputs the rest of the string (after the specified character)

Usage

Push "|" ;divider char
Push "string1|string2|string3|string4|string5" ;input string
 Call SplitFirstStrPart
Pop $R0 ;1st part ["string1"]
Pop $R1 ;rest ["string2|string3|string4|string5"]

The Function

Function SplitFirstStrPart
  Exch $R0
  Exch
  Exch $R1
  Push $R2
  Push $R3
  StrCpy $R3 $R1
  StrLen $R1 $R0
  IntOp $R1 $R1 + 1
  loop:
    IntOp $R1 $R1 - 1
    StrCpy $R2 $R0 1 -$R1
    StrCmp $R1 0 exit0
    StrCmp $R2 $R3 exit1 loop
  exit0:
  StrCpy $R1 ""
  Goto exit2
  exit1:
    IntOp $R1 $R1 - 1
    StrCmp $R1 0 0 +3
     StrCpy $R2 ""
     Goto +2
    StrCpy $R2 $R0 "" -$R1
    IntOp $R1 $R1 + 1
    StrCpy $R0 $R0 -$R1
    StrCpy $R1 $R2
  exit2:
  Pop $R3
  Pop $R2
  Exch $R1 ;rest
  Exch
  Exch $R0 ;first
FunctionEnd

I used this script to get values from a multiline text box (by firstly replacing all " " with "|").
