MSX Basic Question

right$(a$,1)
or right$(a$,len(A$)-1)
or mid$(a$,2,len(a$)-1)
something like that?

In this particular case:
A=1: A$=HEX$(A): print A$

... or:
A=1: print using "#";A

Hm, in my listing, until now the only given solution to your generic question how to 'delete spaces from a string', if the last character in a$ is a space, the program will return a NEXT without FOR. So uhm:

10 a$="Anne is een enorme boerenpummel "
20 fori=1tolen(a$)
30 b$=mid$(A$,i,1)
40 ifb$=chr$(32)thengoto60
50 c$=c$+b$
60 nexti
70 print c$

Better....

Thx, ricbit, I now made this

10 a$="MSX no BASIC wa Commodore no BASIC yori omoshiroi desu yo "
20 fori=1tolen(a$)
30 a=instr(mid$(a$,i,1)," "):ifa=0thenb$=b$+mid$(a$,i,1)
40 nexti
50 printb$

Haha, I love this.... Thanks for the push, Manuel ^__^ No need to loop over all the characters? Had to think about it, honestly, but just came up with this:

10 b=1:d=0:a$="manuel-san wa ichiban ookii hito desu"
20 a=instr(b,a$," "):ifa=0thengoto40
30 c=a-d-1:b$=b$+mid$(a$,b,c):b=a+1:d=a:goto20
40 printb$

It does the job, but I needed 4 variables to make it work. I don't think it's very elegant coding... Enlighten me, Manuel, show me something beautiful
