hi.

if you want to address a $0-variable from within a message box, you will
have to use the $0 as an argument for the message box. for example:

the $0 var is passed as the 2nd argument here

[nbx]
|
[pack f $0]
|
[; $2-foo $1(   -> $2 becomes $0 (or whatever number it is assigned to)

does the same as

[nbx]
|
[s $0-foo]

hope that helps.
