%expand() is not aware of local variables
|
#NEWVAR zuggsoft "Zugg's virtual home."
#NEWVAR email "zugg@zuggsoft"
$Local = @email
#SHOW with expand: %expand(@email,1)
#SHOW with expand: %expand($Local,1)
#SHOW $Local
Output:
with expand: zugg@zuggsoft
with expand: $Local
zugg@zuggsoft |

Added to bug list. Although as you see, you shouldn't really need %expand with local variables since CMUD doesn't do recursive expansion like zMUD did. By putting the "zugg@zuggsoft" within double-quotes, you are telling CMUD that this is a literal string, which is what prevents the @zuggsoft from being expanded like it did in zMUD.

Ah noted, though the problem was really generated for me by trying to expand named parameters that contained arguments that needed evaluation. I could have continued to use %1...%99 but thought you'd like to know.
