You can now even use "sequence" as variable name (tested with Eu 2.5):
sequence text
atom sequence
text = "Huhu"
sequence = 3
puts(1, text & "\n")
? sequence
After exchanging the first two lines, you'll get an error, though.
However, it shouldn't be too hard to rename variables from "string" to
"String" or whatever. In the archives, there are alpha versions from
the year 2000 or so. I think it's time to revise these programs anyway.
