questions of composition
hi - i have few questions please:
1) is it possible to position with co-ordinates jit.windows on the screen?
2) how do i get rid of the menubar in presentation mode?
3) if i have a message of text, how would i cut out the first (or last) series of letters/words?
4) how could i extract metadata (like tags) from images?
5) would it be preferred for me to post each of these questions separately?
thanks,
josh

umm to get words of a phrase you can use zl in ecils, slice or iter mode
few days ago i been in the situation of break words in letters and i dont found a straight way or object to do it, so i solved sending the word in a message to a atoi->iter->itoa
dont know if its the most efficient way,, sure somebody else can tell us a btter way to do this,, but for me works because isnt a persistent operation in a patch..

is for mp3 tags.. dont know if works for images..

Depending on what you are trying to do, you might also consider unpack or route.
