Question about acme and $acmeaddr
Greetings,
I have started to use acme and would like to know how to use the
environment variable $acmeaddr.
I have the following script:
echo acmeaddr $acmeaddr '$*' $*
If I B1 on the file name only (in a tag) and the B2-1 on the script I get:
acmeaddr $* nibsOam
ie, $acmeaddr is empty. Is this as expected? The manual page says
''an environment variable $acmeaddr is created that holds, in the
form interpreted by button 3, the fully-qualified address of
the extra argument.''
This made me expect at least something in $acmeaddr.
Best Wishes,
bengt

I think it's because you're clicking on something on the tag. How can
it give a 'fully-qualified address' for text on the tag? You need
to click/select something in the body.
