Topic: Can't reenter Lips. error with getstring

[Keith™]

but what if the respondent desires to enter something in parenthesis ... something that is not for lisp evaluation?

To clarify, its still possible to enter a string starting with an open parenthesis at the getstring prompt, and the getstring function will still return this entered string correctly, however, you just receive the annoying Can't reenter LISP message to accompany it:

Code: [Select]

Command: (getstring "\nEnter String: ")

Enter String: (test)

Can't reenter LISP.
"(test)"

Tried, doesn't help. Neither does CmdEcho.
