What do you mean? You mean like variables?  Same pipe codes work that work in
text files anywhere.

wwiv.io.puts("Hello |{user.name}")

or

wwiv.io.puts("Hello |@N")

both is username (|@N is the form for old control^O codes, and |{...} is the
newer style long 5.7+ codes.

the import wwiv.io means you can write just "puts" vs. "wwiv.io.puts"

See https://docs.wwivbbs.org/en/latest/cfg/wwivbasic/#wwivinterpretstring-code
for some small examples, and also in WWIV under the scripts/ directory.

yourinfo.msg uses pipe codes too, do you can look there for examples.  I'm
trying to make more of WWIV uses those so it's easier to customize.
