[fomus-devel] pack list as symbol - was: expected valid/unique mark in MARKS slot

[Rob Canning]

i get it - thanks - 

is there anyway that a character can be inserted in the spaces of a list so it can be formated as a symbol?
it would make it easier generating strings as symbols are easier to deal with than lists - in [sprintf] or {pack] for example

((:textnote "sul G")) would become 

((:textnote_"sul G"))
or
((:textnote,"sul G"))

and then could be handled as a %s
?

just a thought
cheers

i think you you meant  ((:textnote "sul G")) without the "'"
