				How do you output quotation marks using Font.Draw and put?
 
 
For example: how would I output the text put "hello" (with the quotation marks)? |

				nevermind.  I found another way.
 
 
You can either use your way (which works fine and I appreciate the help) or you can use a slash before the quotation marks you want to be outputted.
 
 
example: put "\"hi\""
 
 
works the same way with Font.Draw |

				using put you can do something similar by using 2 ' instead of "
 
 
	  | code: | 	 		  put "''Who Goes There?''"   | 	  
 
 
or you can use the ASCII value of "" via chr() function in this case it'd be put chr(34)
 
 
	  | code: | 	 		  put chr(34), "Who Goes There", chr(34)  | 	  
 
 
this works also for Font.Draw
 
 
enjoy   |
