working with strings

[greenpix]

I am currently working with the monitor object and would like to do 2 things:
- Display an incoming OSC string without quotation marks
- change color if first five letters contain a word
so far I only found a lot of operators for working with numbers, but not with strings. Is there a possibility to convert to array in order to use those? Any ideas and pointers are much appreciated!

Solved the first issue by replacing the monitor object with a text object and using the suggestion from here:
https://forum.liine.net/viewtopic.php?f ... ent#p18323

solved the other issue by work-around.
Still it would be helpful to unparse certain messages that come via string..

May I ask what the workaround was?
I'm looking for a way to execute a script (select another tab of a container) by specific text content of an OSC message, exactly like your "- change color if first five letters contain a word";
