  After digging around for a bit I found a thread saying that the Text Properties might be bugged in the latest unstable release (which is the one I'm using) so I take it that that is the problem. I found a workaround however. If I apply the Alpha Test Sharp effect to my text it will be rendered without any anti-aliasing, just like I want it.

  Hello there

  I was wondering if there was an easy way to get text to be displayed with absolutely no anti-aliasing whatsoever. I want them jaggies man! I needs them!

  Obviously I've tried selecting "Aliased" in the Text Rendering option but that just makes them slightly less anti-aliased and I want them perfectly sharp to fit with my MSPainty graphical style. I'm aware of PixelRebirth's bitmap font solution (which I'll probably end up using if there's no other way) but I was kinda hoping there would be a simpler solution using the default windows fonts.

  Any help is appreciated.

  A million thanks to you good sir.

  I think understand what's happening. Basically you divide the rule string using $ as the delimiter and then loop through each snippet comparing it to the first same number of letters in the input string and then you delete the length of the snippet plus one character, the delimiter, from the input string. That should work perfectly for what I'm trying to do.

  Thanks for the help and thanks for the warm welcome

  Hello

  Is there anyway to match two or more strings of which one contains one or more wildcards, for example if I want to compare strings "abbdfsgg" and "abgdklgg" with string "ab*d**gg" (no that is not some exotic curse word) and return true for both? Is this possible and if yes, what would I use for wildcard character and how would I write it in the expression? I have tried both asterisks and question marks, but none of them seems to work. I hope you understand what I mean.
