Description of Function pb_keyfilter

The pb_keyfilter function takes an argument key, which is a name used as a key in the hash table, and either filters it for storage or unfilters it for display. The filter, which replaces each space in the key with an underscore (_), makes the key usable with the methods of java.util.Properties.

function out = pb_keyfilter(key)
if ~isempty(findstr(key,' '))
    out = strrep(key,' ','_');
else
    out = strrep(key,'_',' ');
end;
