js:Token

 This article describes a feature or macro function that is experimental and may be subject to change.

Within the JavaScript environment used by js.eval, ie. the one that executes within GraalVM and NOT the one used by dialog5() or frame5(), tokens are represented by the Token class. The Token class cannot be directly instantiated, but tokens can be found from the MapTool top level name.

token.getNotes() Function

 Note: This function can only be used in a Trusted Macro
