That was part of the problem, the value wasn't being retained, maybe for

The original stack script set the variable values on openStack, then a button

Hi Bill,
If you specify a number of characters to skip, the offset that is returned
is relative to that number, not the start of the string. So if you specify
7 characters to skip and the character you are looking for is the 10th
character in the string, you will get (10-7) or 3 as the result.

I get it. It seems an odd way to implement it, though. Anyway, a clarification

Another thing that confuses me, as a newbie, is the free interchangeable use of
handler and script. In

Hi Jacque,
I've definitely seen values disappear after compiling the script for a long
time but didn't worry abut it too much since that only happens during

reproduce it.

I found it a bit odd too when I discovered it. I found that I was often
using the chars to skip parameter in a repeat loop and now I usually avoid
it by deleting the characters from the beginning of the string to the
offset each time around the loop. May or may not work for you depending on

A nice enhancement would be for a LC plug-in that would translate a stack

I'm not sure it's a fair test. As far as I know, you can't assign a
value to a script local that way, though you can if it's a constant.
Actually, I'm kind of surprised it

Well, I didn't *think* it was allowed. I confess I never used script
locals that way. If I need to assign a permanent value, I use a constant:
constant kVar = 1234
If the IDE accomodates script locals with assignments, then maybe
something changed. Apparently it doesn't work in standalones.
I take it back. The dictionary says you can do it. Whaddya know.
