Try [list2symbol] from zexy.
Doesn't seem to work I have this: [1
| [makefilename movie %d.mov] | [list2symbol] | [open $1< |
the trick is to construct a list of symbols whcih are then concatenated by [l2s]
[makefilename movie %d.mov] will just output a symbol "movie" no matter what is sent to it (this is: only the first argument is taken into account!)
so you will have to put the changing part (the one with %d) into [makefilename], then create a list containing "movie" and the constructed symbol and then use [l2s].
or you can use [l2s] to construct the format-string (literal "movie %d.mov") as one symbol and then set [makefilename].
so many possibilities...
