I am having trouble creating a quoted text string. I9m following the
example in a book I have.
Script:
set x to "He said \"Oops.\" after dropping the plate." as string
get x
Result:
"He said \"Oops.\" after dropping the plate."
What I want:
"He said "Oops." after dropping the plate."
(see no slashes)
I DO NOT want the back slashes to appear in the string. I9ve tried it
without the as string9 on the end. I9ve also tried it with as text9 .
Nothing seems to work. I always get the back slashes.
How do I go about getting the quoted text into the variable?
Thanks.
