Name of variable - cannot be longer than 32 characters length, - can cannot start with a digit, - can have any characters except: ASCII characters 32, 9, 13, 10, - dollar character "$" make name variable which explained below. Variables can be used in operations and string-expressions. All variables have type "string". In other words, values of variables are strings of ASCII characters. However, if used in arithmetical operations, they interpreted as long integers (, or in case of division "\", as double rationals ) If value was not assigned to variable, variable has initial value empty "". If empty variable used in arithmetical operations, this variable is assigned value 0. Variable names allowed: example: if variable $moo has value foo, and variable $boo has value "_own_$moo" then $moo - will refer to name "foo", my$moo - will refer to name "myfoo", my$boo - will refer to name "my_own_foo" Variables can be included in string-expressions with format $<variable_name><limitor> <limitor> is one of " ", CR, LF, TAB, double qoutes ", or simply end of string; " " - is sacrificed (removed when substituting variable); other limitors - are not; There are 25 intrinsic (reserved variable) names: ================================================= with their name, initial values, and description: token "" current token type "" current event type indent INDENT (after assigning v=indent, INDENT becomes empty) explained in indent_help.txt. in "" SourceText; assignment ..=in."text" automatically assigns pos = 1; out "" ResultText pos 1 current position in SourceText during execution; p_round round number useful for projects which parse source multiple times @ NestVariable; Assosiated with each global nest position. # current position in the global nest (=global nest length); read-only; value is a number; @state current state; value is a string; @nest current nest; value is a string; p_file_for_GUI name of currently processed file to be displayed in GUI box; p_source source project p_version S2S version This variables explained in file: project_and_schema_structure_help.txt/"File Tree Structure" p_basic source file basic name p_extension source file extension p_rbasic result file basic name p_rextension result file extension p_local_path relative path to parent folder of currently processed file "relative" means relative to parent of source p_umbrella p_shield p_parent p_rparent p_processed_files p_file p_rfile Some file-system variables described in: project_and_schema_structure_help.
