[1.34] %quote() bug
|
$temp = %quote(%line)
#SAY $temp
result: ~%line
I guess I can kinda see why....
$temp = %line
%quote($temp)
#SAY $temp
result: 0
$temp = %line
$temp = %quote(%eval($temp))
#SAY $temp
result: ~%eval($temp) |

What you are looking for is this.
#show ~"The big fat cat.~"
$temp=%quote(%{line})
#say $temp |

Actually, I think you are right that this is a bug. When I looked at the definition of %quote in CMUD, the argument was marked as a "literal" argument, and not a "string" argument. So, CMUD wasn't parsing the argument at all...it was just taking it as a literal string value. I have changed this for v2.0.

yeah I was thinking that was the reason...
The thing that confused me though was how it reacted in case 2. It was %quote($temp) I was thinking that if it were thinking it was a literal than it should have put either a $temp or a ~$temp on the screen (depending on if $ is now a special character)
So it looks like there is a little bit of an undefined behavior going on there too... but I'm not sure |
