list to a text representation of that list


  • Subject: list to a text representation of that list

This should probably be very straightforward...but I want to convert a list
{"One","Two","Three", ""} ...to a string that is exactly that...a left brace, a quote, a captal O, an n, an e, a quote, a comma, and so on.


But I run into problems.

In fact, I really want a text representation of what might be a nested list of lists.

{"One","Two","Three", {"Four","Five",{91,"Two",166, 212}, ""},}

and so on. Messing with 'Applescript's text item delimiters' seems to be getting me nowhere. Can anyone help? Thanks.
