Pack-X

This object preforms the (apparently useful) task of “packing” a string into a number, and unpacking it again. This allows you to store strings into Alterable values, or into numeric array items. The strings converted to numbers cannot be too long, as they must fit in an integer.

My first extension. Written under the request of Fodo. Supported by both MMF1.2 and MMF1.5. Open Source and Free, under the BSD licence. File includes source code and example and is in the attachments section below.

Attached is also LIJI's MMF2 port of the object.
