Dear Listeners,

I stumbled over an irritating macro var resolution, using EG:

  %let slashes = %str(//test/test2) ;
  %let test3 = &slashes./test4 ;

  %put _all_ ;
  GLOBAL SLASHES    test test2
  GLOBAL TEST3    test test2 /test4

Slashes are not correctly reproduced (and brackets as well ?), when the
string is enclosed in %str()...

...strange...

Any ideas ?

Cheers,

Hans
