Keywords: Mac Advantage - Lisa Pascal

I have a mac at home, and I always used Mac Advantage pascal to write
programs.

But now, I'm gonna have access to a Lisa, with the workshop. I fell very
happy about this, as Mac Advantage was so heavy to use with the toolbox
(locate, FrMacBool, etc...), and so memory consuming.

What I am doing now is translating a program I wrote in Mac Advantage to
Lisa Pascal. It's really easy to do, except one thing I don't understand :

In Mac Advantage, there is a procedure called :
.........GetIndString(var TheStr, ListStrID, index);
which puts in TheStr the string number index of the resource of type STR(hash)
and of ID ListStrID.

PROBLEM : I can't find an equivalent for this procedure in Lisa Pascal.

There must be one, because elsewhere, type STR(hash) would not be
interesting !

So, my last word will be : HELP.
