You could factor it. First a movie script:
on qr psStr
lbLook = TRUE
repeat while lbLook
liOffset = offset("'", psStr)
lbLook = (liOffset > 0)
if lbLook then put QUOTE into char liOffset of psStr
end repeat
return psStr
end
Then...
myList = [qr("getUserName('bill')"), qr("getUserName('sam')")]
put myList
-- ["getUserName("bill")", "getUserName("sam")"]
Then...
do myList[1]
put the result
-- "bill"
And...
do myList[2]
put the result
-- "sam"

Subject: <lingo-l> AN ODD string ISSUE
In javascript there are two different types of quotes(" & ')
The reason I ask is that I am trying to save a function as a list element
to be used later such as:
myList = ["getUserName("bill")"]
so then I could call this:
do(myList[1])
how would I save the element to the list so that it would contain the
quotes?
In javascript I could do this:
"getUserName('bill')"
is there something similar?
