/*
This macro demonstrates how to do string processing.
What it does is convert the DICOM data dictionary from  
Part 6 of the DICOM standard, which looks like this:

   (0054,0011) Number of Energy Windows US 1
   (0054,0012) Energy Window Information Sequence SQ 1
   (0054,0020) Detector Vector US 1-n

to the format used by ImageJ in DICOM.java:

   "054,0011=USumber of Energy Windows",
   "00540012=SQEnergy Window Information Sequence",
   "00540020=USDetector Vector",

The input dictionary is assumed to be in a text window
named 'dict.txt'. The output is displayed in the "Log" window.

  name = 'dict.txt';
  selectWindow(name);
  data=getInfo();
  data = split(data, '\n');
  for (i=0; i<data.length; i++) {
      d = data[i];
      d = substring(d, 1, lengthOf(d)); //remove '('
      d = substring(d, 0, 4) + substring(d, 5, lengthOf(d)); //remove ','
      d = substring(d, 0, lastIndexOf(d, ' '));  // remove '1' or '1-n'
      vr = substring(d, lengthOf(d)-2, lengthOf(d)); // get VR (e.g. 'US')
      d = substring(d, 0, lengthOf(d)-3); // remove VR
      d = substring(d, 0, 8) + '=' + vr + substring(d, 10, lengthOf(d)); //insert VR
      d = '"' + d; // add leading double quote
      d =d +'",'; // add trailing double quote and comma
      data[i] = d;
      print(data[i]);
