We use Vesoft's Streamx exclusively here, and I was wondering if anyone
here would know how to get around a little problem I am having with it.
The job prompts the user for a string:

::PROMPT STRING INFO = &
  "Enter a string: "

The string may contain a slash ("/"). I want to display within the
stdlist what string the user entered:

!comment info.....{INFO}

But if the user has entered a string which contains a slash, the part of
the string which follows the slash does not display in the comment line.
Is there some trick to getting the whole string to display, regardless
of what the user entered?

Thanks a bunch,
Jay
