Solved Remove all special chars from a string?

[pepper82]

Hi all,
does anybody know how to "clean up" a string from any unwanted characters?

Example:
STRING = "Hello this &6is come cool text with %% lots of crazy // chars!"

I want to clear it so that only words and numbers are left, but no color codes or any other special char.

Put every individual character in a list using split, loop the list, if the character is a wanted character add it, else don't

Any example?

command /clean <text>:
    trigger:
        set {_} to "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789"
        set {_1} to arg 1
        set {_2} to arg 1
        set {_l::*} to {_} split at ""
        loop {_l::*}:
            replace every loop-value with "" in {_1}
        set {_l2::*} to {_1} split at ""
        loop {_l2::*}:
            replace every loop-value with "" in {_2}
        message {_2}
