#echo variable with %cr
 
Hi,

I have a list @arrows with texts containing %cr.

Code:
#echo %ansi($fore, $back)%expand(%db(@arrows, sw))


Shows output:
Code:
#   #
#  #
# #
##
#####



But I want to use it in alias and "sw" should be a variable.
Code:
#echo %ansi($fore, $back)%expand(%db(@arrows, $dir))


Shows:
Code:
%db(@arrows, $dir)


Without %expand
Code:
%cr#   #%cr#  #%cr# #%cr##%cr#####


Can it be done anyhow?

Thanks for your help
Pawel.

Instead of putting it as a string with %cr, you could do it as a string list, then do:

Code:
%expandlist(%db(@arrows, $dir),%cr)


instead.

Just change the %crs in the database to | and you'll be all set.
