Reverse (get to-word string!)
[1/4] from: ammoncooke::yahoo at: 28-Sep-2001 4:52
Hi,
Now that I have the ability reference an object from a string, is it possible to make
an object reference into a string? Like this:
>>a: layout [
[ text "this is an object"
[]
>>to-string a
== "?object?"
But have it return "a"
Is this possible? Did I just miss something simple? ;-/
Thanks!! ;D

Try:
>> a: layout [
[ text "this is an object"
[ ]
>> mold a
== {
make object! [
type: 'face
offset: 25x25
size: 132x59
span: none
pane: [
make object! [
...

Or...
>> to-string 'a
== "a"

Doh! Doh! Doh! I very much dislike overlooking things. to-string 'a is
what I was looking for.
Thanks!!
