I actually did know about that feature. :) I’d read about it and to experiment, I wanted to print out a table showing the ‘v-string notation, i.e. ‘.102.111.111’, and then the word/symbol that that would result in, i.e. ‘foo’. So I’d have a table like:
=================
v-string | output
=================
 111     |   o
-----------------
 112     |   p
-----------------
etc.

The logical way to achieve this, seemed to be a loop, that printed a line, incremented the count by one, and then printed the next line. This would show me the code and the corresponding letter. However, since I can’t print out .$scalar. I’m not sure how to achieve this...

Thanks again for your time.
