Thanks,

but in another case, seems there is a problem, for the line actually is:
"EEEEEEEEEEESEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~EEEEEEEEEEEE~EEEEEE~EEEEEEEEEE~EEEEEE~EEEEEEEEEEEE
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~EEE~EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~",

not naked EEEor whatever. it's already in ""

let me think think, and also welcome advice,

actually debugging is enjoyment after the frustration.
