I want to get a string from an i statement to serve as the channel name 
in a chnget, chnmix, or chnclear. Is this possible? I tried something like

aout  chnget p4

but got an error -- "input arg 1 'p7' of type p not allowed when 
expecting S (for opcode chhnget.a)"

Hi,

you should load the value to a Strig variable first with strset:

Schannel strget p4

then

aout chnget Schannel

tar,p
