` (keyword access character)

 
 

Syntax

`name


Purpose

You can use the keyword access character to access an OmniMark keyword that has been hidden by a user-defined name.

For instance, the following program overrides the + character to make it perform concatenation. It then uses the backquote character to access the original + operator.

  define string infix-function 
   value string a
   +
   value string b
   as 
     return a || b
   
  process
     output "cat" + " mouse"
     output "d" % 2 `+ 4
