#47 closed enhancement (fixed)

TEXT does not seem to accept variables or variable functions

Description

It would be useful to allow TEXT to expand some variables or perform functions. Unfortunately, this does not seem to be possible.

Example:

TEXT
Please expand %full[%0].
ENDTEXT

results in %full[%0] being echoed to the command line and not expanded. All sane permutations (%%, quoting, etc.) result in literal output.

I'm not reporting this as a defect, because AFAICT, this is likely WAD.
