string.getWordChar

Syntax	string.getWordChar ()
Params	None
Action	Determines what character is presently being used in Frontier as the word separator.
Returns	The character currently being used to define word boundaries.
Examples	string.getWordChar ()    » ' ' This example assumes the wordChar has not been changed from its default value of space. ch = string.getWordChar (); // save the wordChar string.setWordChar ('.'); // temporarily change it to a period word = string.firstWord ("people.DW.notepad"); string.setWordChar (ch); // restore the wordChar msg (word)    » true Returns true because the last verb is msg, which executes successfully. Note that the message displayed is "people" because that's the value assigned to word by the execution of the string.firstWord verb.
Notes	This verb is most useful when you wish to change the word separator temporarily. You can use string.getWordChar to assign the present separator to a variable. You can then use string.setWordChar to change the word separator temporarily and then restore it later. (See the second example set above.)
