Variable

Post by **caesar** » Sun Dec 02, 2001 12:44 pm

How come that I can't reqest a variable like "$some-line" from the .conf file? If I request a variable like this I get this error message: 'can't read "some": no such variable'. This can be fixed somehow? Any sugestions?

Thx!

Tcl does no have a inteligant parser, and cant tell that the "-line" of "$some-line" is part of the variable.

Try surounding the varibale with {}. EG "${some-line}"
