It scans through the supplied content without processing it, and stores it in the specified local variable. The contents can then be retrieved using [v] ) or [lv] ) , again only in the outmost context, without being processed. This allows you to place blocks of code verbatim from a variable. When using HTML, you'd contain this within an inline HTML <div> </div> to control the display; if you feed the [raw] ) variable to any aa_macro operator, the content probably will be processed. There are a few operators, such as [getc] ) , that are specifically designed to take [raw] ) input. Warning:
Because [raw] ) has to parse through its content until it finds its own closing ], the [ and ], and the { and } instances in the content must both be balanced, that is, for every [ there must be a later, corresponding ] and for every { there must be a later, corresponding }. Other built-ins used here: [raw] )
