How do I call to individual letters in a word

Hi

I have words being pulled from an array. And I need to be able to isolate them by letter for a time based hangman-ish letter game.

So say I have the word "cat" I need to be able have the word cat fill a text input letter by letter every 5 seconds. So "c" then 5 seconds later "o" and so on.

Anyone know how to do that?

You use the tokenat() expression for this, so for example tokenat(cat,0,"") is C, tokenat(cat,1,"") is A, tokenat(cat,2,"") is T. Check the manual for more info!

To have it fill every 5 seconds you would use a variable for the middle value, the index, and every 5 seconds print tokenat(cat,var,"") then add 1 to the variable for next time.
