THING

Syntax

THING (thingname$)

Location

Fn

This function is used to check whether a Thing is present in memory (ie. whether a given item appears on the Thing list). If the Thing is present, then the function will return 0, otherwise it will return -7 (not found).

Examples

PRINT THING('Button_sleep')
PRINT THING('HOTKEY')

NOTE

In versions earlier than v1.02, this function may sometimes return a value greater than zero if the Thing exists.
