[text size] returns 5. [2(-[text get] returns 'symbol drei'. The
message after that is accessed with [3(-[text get]. 

Wow, you're right of course! *big facepalm* In all these years I never realized that comma seperate messages count as seperate "lines"!

The documentation of [text] only always speaks of "lines" and one would think that "line" would mean, well, "line of text".

From [text get]:

"text get" reads the nth line from the named text and outputs it.

From [text size]:

"text size" reports the number of lines in the text or the length of a specified line.

How am I supposed to know that

1 2 3, a b c, foo bar baz;

actually counts as 3 "lines"?

I think a more proper term would be "message". I think the documentation has to be improved. @porres to the rescue!! :-)
