> Can you coerce this to a string,

Nope. Not possible.


Not directly. I believe that one of the cumbersome workarounds was to
convert it to a script, then convert the script to text.

I'll see if I can find the script I did this with in Mac OS9. It was a
printing script for Quark and the issue was that various print drivers would
use different record labels for the same values, and that had to be resolved
at runtime.

Also, I Mark's List & Record Tools Osax at Late Night Software could do this
as well.

--get user property names {myAge:42} --> {"myAge"}
