If I use
8<--------------------
; ...
firstName: choice texts firstNames [sayName]
lastName: choice texts lastNames [sayName]
; ...
8<--------------------
then the choice buttons get populated from the blocks, but
when the window first appears, the choice buttons are
unlabeled and the full name text is
none none
This implies to me that using 'texts is somehow different
from supplying the literal sequence of strings in-line. (Is
this a "bug" or a "feature"? ;-)
I'd be content, however, if I knew what code to place before
sayName
view center-face ui
to force each choice to set itself to the first alternative.
