parse string literal

Stream: metaprogramming / tactics

This looks like a really stupid question but I can't find the answer myself. How do I parse a string literal as an argument to user command?

[Rob Lewis]

You can parse an expr and evaluate it as a string. See e.g. src#localized_cmd

Great thanks! I think this deserves a dedicated parser, but this trick will do.
