Is there anyway to get the output of a QUOTE() usable as a string?
I tried
Input(H,"EQ: ");
String(QUOTE(H))(store arrow)Notes("quotenote");
But it results in an input error.
I want to get the expression, unchanged and unevaluated into a string so I can copy it to a note object. That is, the expression that I type in, be it 3*4/5 or SIN(45)*31.

I'm not sure QUOTE is the right command to use here and the Var H is typed as Real.
The following will input h as a string then save contents of h into a note.The type [2] forces h to be treated as a string.
Code:
EXPORT QQ()
BEGIN
LOCAL h;
Input({{h,[2]}},"EQ: ");
h▶Notes("quotenote");
END;

Thanks, yes that works to get the string out.
I was also planning to to have the Quote() because I planned to also EVAL() it afterwards, and therfore find the answer to the expression, while also having the expression that has been answered.
Can you think of a way of having both of those? Or to turn a string into an evaluatable thing?

Try adding the line EXPR(h) before the END statement
