[KillerX]

Hi ,

now i have this string

msg = "@#!%%^,:{}"

and i can remove all signs from this string by this way

string.gsub( msg , '%p' , '' )

tha question is : how to remove all signs from this string except this sign " , "

Thanks

patterns = {"%p", ","}
for i,v in ipairs(patterns) do
    str = string.gsub(str, v, "")
end
