I am confused again ...
I try to set a variable to "type //echo -a $mircdir to find your mircdirectory". But using set -n %text type //echo -a $mircdir still evaluates $mircdir. According to the helpfile the -n switch should prevent that. I have to use $($mircdir, 0) with or without -n to prevent it from being evaluated. Why is the -n switch not working?
