Maybe allow this for script captions too??

Code: Select all

+ POM: Now the captions may contain XY variables. They are resolved in the moment the POM is generated. For example:
|"Search IMDB for '<curbase>'" *>::Open("http://www.imdb.com/find?s=tt&q=<curbase>");

Yeah, why not. Added it.

In continuation with me previous wish, is it possible to show user variables in script captions? Especially since we have global variables now.
For example consider this script:
In script2, I am using one of XY's variable <clipboard> in the captions which is quite cool because the menus are not hardcoded anymore. But this method has limitations and would be nice if there could be someway to use user variables in captions.

"start : 1"
     input $byemessage, "Enter goodbye message", "Goodbye World";
     copytext $byemessage;
     load *, "_script1;_script2"
"Hello world : _script1"
     msg "Your hello message was Hello World";
"<clipboard> : _script2"
     msg "Your goodbye message was <clipboard>";

Resolve Globals in captions... well, could work. I'm not sure about the ramifications, and it's not a good time to open a black box... please save wish for later.

Sure, I will remind you after the popular features are out.
