[1.03] #FORALL and the %i expansion
 
Still trying to get my i_add alias to work, I am starting from square one and trying to figure out the differences or bugs in CMUD that prevent it from just working as it was in zMUD. I've come across a problem in a test alias simply using the #FORALL command. I'd like to know if others have similar problems.

The alias:
Code:
#ALIAS test {#FORALL {%1} {#say {Loop variable is %i}}}


The compiled code:
Code:
0000   LINE   0   ; #forall {%1} {#say {Loop variable is %i}}
0012   PUSHSTRLOC   0028
0020   JUMP   0036
0028   PARAMREF   1
0036   ARGSTR   %1
0048   PUSHLOC   0064
0056   JUMP   0168
0064   PUSHSTRLOC   0080
0072   JUMP   0128
0080   STR   'Loop variable is '
0116   LOOPVAR   i
0124   CONCAT   
0128   ARGSTR   Loop variable is %i
0156   CMD   say   (1)
0168   ARGSTR   #say {Loop variable is %i}
0204   CMD   forall   (2)


The command executed:
Code:
test blah|bleh


The output received:
Code:
Loop variable is 28


(Actually, the -first- time I tried it, it printed out the alias code, even though it's valid syntax. Editing it and saving it with the exact same syntax as before yields the output above.)

I see two things happening here:
1. It appears that it's printing the address of the string list and not the strings I passed in.
2. Since it's using the address, it's not a string list and so it's not really a loop on two items. It's only printing the one line.
