I was thinking of function invocations, not Call. For example, if I have
an internal routine 'reverse:', for some obscure reason:
reverse: procedure
parse arg string
/* some code that
does whatever and then
I want to execute the
external function, then
I code: */
return 'REVERSE'(string)
Accomplishing the same thing in Object code is beyond my meager
knowledge of Objects.
