I'm using the 0.12 source passed to me from Richelieu via Crag.
Method:
@program $brandon.foo
arg foo;
foo = tostr(foo);
.tell(toliteral(foo));
foo = lowercase(foo);
.tell(toliteral(foo));
foo = tosym(foo);
.tell(toliteral(foo));
.
;.foo('foo);
"foo"
"foo"
'"fooo\""
=> Brandon ($brandon)
(?)
;.foo('WTF);
"WTF"
"wtf"
'"wtfF\""
=> Brandon ($brandon)
(?!?!??)
;.foo('this_is_fkd);
"this_is_fkd"
"this_is_fkd"
'"this_is_fkdd\""
=> Brandon ($brandon)
....well, you get the gist of what I'm trying to say. Somewhere along the way
(presumably with tosym) something is getting munched. Have any changes been
made to anything which is used with tosym() in the 0.12 source? This works
fine in the 0.10-3 source (I'm converting over and noticed it when it tries to
set a dbref--it goes through the same process as above and all dbrefs end up
getting munched).
