function slowPrint(EoiL,ElkO)
  for i = 1,EoiL# do
    write(EoiL[i])
    sleep(ElkO)
  end
end

im trying to make a slow print function because the defualt one is too fast for me. I think the problem is EoiL# part. if it is then how do i split a string into a table?

for i = 1,EoiL# do
--needs to be
for i = 1,#EoiL do

I assume you are getting the number of indexes in a table?
