:<pre> local var1 = getglobal("ChatFrame1") -- var1 is a reference to <frame> ChatFrame1.</pre> | |||
:<pre> local var2 = GetText("ChatFrame1") -- var2 is an empty string (<string> "").</pre> | |||
:<pre> local var3 = getglobal("YES") -- var3 is <string> "Yes" (on enUS clients).</pre> | |||
:<pre> local var4 = GetText("YES") -- var4 is <string> "Yes" (on enUS clients).</pre> | |||
