strset

Allows a string to be linked with a numeric value.

Syntax

strset iarg, istring

Initialization

iarg -- the numeric value.

istring -- the alphanumeric string (in double-quotes).

strset (optional) allows a string, such as a filename, to be linked with a numeric value. Its use is optional.

Examples

The following statement, used in the orchestra header, will allow the numeric value 10 to be substituted anywhere the soundfile asound.wav is called for.

strset 10, "asound.wav"

Here is an example of the strset opcode. It uses the file strset.csd.
