This time I've got a symbol, say "foo", and some numbers, say 3, and I'm trying to construct "read foo-3.wav".
Tried "makefilename $1-%d.wav", aiming to plug in the 3 and get "$1-3.wav", run that through a "set $1" to a message box -- but makefilename sends "$1-3.wav", and I haven't figured out how to strip the backslash off. If makefilename took "set", or handled lists, or didn't add the backslash; or if there were an "add3" that didn't inject spaces... but how do people prefer to do this kind of thing?
