[Orca-users] Re: wrong value like a letter , orca draw the zero value !!!!!

[Blair Zajac]

This really isn't an Orca issue, as it isn't designed to deal with
malformed
input.

My recommendation here is to make sure the expect script outputs valid
data.  You can post process the data with a Perl script to make sure it
matches a regular expression and if it doesn't, then don't print the
line.

while (<>) {
    if (/^\d+\s+\d+\s+\d+$/) {
        print;
    }
}

Blair
