Transcript already allows a rich representation of values and is suitable for representing values to be configured as structures or whatever for system calls.

OK, Dar, show me and I will grovel in mortification...especially if it involves Boxes.rev:


The first argument to the Mac Interapplication Communication Toolbox function, PPCOpen, is a pointer to a PPCOpen parameter block which includes (at specified byte offsets)...

        The address of a completion routine
        A pointer to a PPCPortRec structure
        A pointer to a LocationNameRec structure
        resFlag, a SignedByte
        networkVisible, a boolean [in Mac OS System format]

Other PPC functions need to see pointers to pointers, Str32s, and values in binary & real formats, integer & longInt arrays.

Show me how to define a PPCOpen parameter block in Transcript, and I will be even more impressed with your skills & wisdom than I am already.

...and notice, I didn't even ask you to address the issue of passing a pointer as an argument. :{`)
