[ferret_users] another label issues

[Muyin Wang - NOAA Affiliate <muyin.wang@xxxxxxxx>]

I did a polar stereographic plot then tried to write a label by using the following command:

go mp_label 10, 35, 0, 0, 0.14 @SR"5-23 February 2018"

Then in the label, ferret displayed

"5-23 February 2018, with the first " in the label.

But if I do :

go mp_label 10, 35, 0, 0, 0.14 @SR5-23 February 2018, without "

then only 5-23 displayed  in the label.

What should I do then?

Thank you!

I noticed that a trailing slash is ignored for in a string variable,

I guess the correct statement is that trailing slashes are ignored by the commands.

yes? define symbol ss "/abc/"

yes? show symbol ss
SS = "/abc/"
yes? define symbol ss /abc/
yes? show symbol ss
SS = "/abc"

That means that it was the "DEFINE SYMBOL" command which ignored the trailing backslash.
