:1. Back ticks surrounding text passed directly to a context will be stripped. Normally all text is passed verbatim, including quotes. Back ticks effectively treat the rest of the statement as a block for a multi-line statement. | :1. Back ticks surrounding text passed directly to a context will be stripped.

Quotes are not removed normally as they may be important to the context's command processing. | ||

: | : When addressing the context directly, all of the 'other text' that is not the command simply gets passed to the context. At the top, print "bob" gets run in 'lua' context. The second fails as 'print "bob"' is not valid for the context or Lua. The third runs usingthe run command as a normal parameter to 'run'. While it will run multiline Lua scripts, text still won't be running as a set of context commands. | ||
