Re: text centering function?

From Marc Ries: * * * Before I reinvent the wheel, does anyone have a quick function * to "center" text [something like txtcntr("text", line_width)]? Try this one: ############################################################################## # # Center text based on length in string and return # ############################################################################## FUNCTION centerit( str, len ) DEFINE str CHAR( 80 ), len SMALLINT IF LENGTH( str ) > len THEN RETURN str END IF LET str = ( len - LENGTH( str ) ) / 2 SPACES, str CLIPPED RETURN str END FUNCTION Hope this helps.
