sebescudie / vl.stringextensions

A VL plugin that wraps some .NET String Extensions libraries

VL.StringExtensions

This plugin is a VL wrapper for Jeff Klein's String.Extensions and monk8800's StringExtensions .NET libraries. The plugin exposes some of their methods as VL nodes.

Usage

• In VL's Quad Menu, go to Dependencies/Manage Nugets/Commandline and type

nuget install VL.StringExtensions

The nodes will be available in the nodebrowser under in the String category.
