(50g) String inside string manipulation, UserRPL

[DavidM]

Why not simply store the list of items in a global variable, then populate the required parameters from that variable? Instead of hard-coding the list of items into the key assignment, you would simply RCL that list into place before calling CHOOSE. That would keep you from having to update the key assignment program every time, since its contents would never change. You'd still have to change the global variable to represent the newest items, though. But since the program itself wouldn't change, the key assignment stays intact.

As for making a program out of strings, you can still add the opening and closing brackets with the CHR methodology mentioned previously, or simply enclosing those characters in double quotes:

Code:

« "«" 34 CHR "Vtile" 34 CHR "»" + + + + STR→ »

or

Code:

« 171 CHR 34 CHR "Vtile" 34 CHR 187 CHR + + + + STR→ »

It's always possible that I'm still misunderstanding the issues, though.
