My usage of quotes in that context was for English syntax compliance, not xTalk :) > I would think the quotes would say "don't > evaluate anything within". You might think that, but then that's not xTalk. We're not talking about the difference between a string literal and a variable label. As long as we keep the loose typing characteristics of xTalk -- and I would argue we should, being as the benefits outweigh the drawbacks -- mere quotes around a value is not sufficient to identify the type of value stored. put "5" + "5" gives you 10 Would you rather that give you "Syntax Error?" - Bill _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
