What does Backslash "\" mean?
In lisp what is the significance of backslash? For example for me to load a command from a DCL button I would write:(action_tile "MKLINE" "(command \"line\")(done_dialog)")
I have had a look around and most people say that the character after the backslash is not taken into account?! I am a little foggy.
Thanks Is used in pair with following character to add special characters to strings. The ACTION_TILE function accept a string argument - therefore "\"" allow you to incluse the " character in string. Other examples: "\t" (tab), "\n" (new line) or "\\" (backslash). Ah i understand!
But why for example does this not work?
(action_tile "MKLINE" "(command line)(done_dialog)") There are two errors on that excerpt (by the way, please edit your posts to add code tags).
[*]The call of command is not allowed while the dialog is still open.
[*]The name of command must be provided as a string.
(command line)(command "line")
I've attempted to explain the use of the backslash many times...
