MUSH: setr()

[adamdray]

Huh. As I egosurfed, I found this PennMUSH change log:

+ Version 1.6.9 patchlevel 1 September 26, 1996
+
+ New Function:
+
+ * setr() is like setq() but returns the string as well.
+ It's identical to [setq(#,string)]%q#. Suggested by Adam Dray.

I only vaguely remember discussing this with someone on the PennMUSH

Wow - another thing you can get geek points for. Are you sure you need any more?

Now I wish I had dated my Changelogs.

I released 1.3p0 no later than 8-23-96:

-rw-rwxr-- 1 dpassmor stuff 614980 Aug 23 1996 tinymux-1.3p0.tar.gz

setr() first appeared in 1.1p1, some time before. It's possible you saw it in MUX and suggested it to the Penn developers.

Whoops, found my 'older code' directory. 1.1 p1 was released 12/4/1995.
