Interesting question.
Tag! and Issue! might be useful for your design but both will not be
able to handle certain characters. I figured I could write some code to
show what they are:
chars-in-form: function [
example-form [block!]
] [all-chars useable-chars ch test-value] [
all-chars: copy {}
useable-chars: copy {}
repeat i 255 [
append all-chars ch: to-char i
if all [
not error? try [test-value: load rejoin example-form]
1 = length? test-value
ch = first test-value
] [append useable-chars ch]
]
exclude all-chars useable-chars
]
print mold chars-in-form [#"#" ch]
print mold chars-in-form [#"<" ch #">"]
