table
table() Function
• Introduced in version 1.3b39
Gets the text value from the specified
table. If the row is not specified then the default roll for the table is used. The row can be either a constant or a roll.
Note that what this function returns is interpreted as either a string or a number. You can put code in a table entry but that too will be returned as a string and will not be evaluated. To evaluate the result you can use eval() to evaluate e.g. the table entry 1d5 and evalMacro() to evaluate e.g. the table entry [r:1d5]Usage
table(name)table(name, row)tbl(name)tbl(name, row)Parameters
