Target Special Container

Syntax: the target

Description

The target identifies the first object to receive the message most recently issued by Oracle Media Objects. The contents of the target can be changed with the put command. The target function identifies the object by its abbreviated name property. The name property consists of the type of object and the name of the object (enclosed in quotation marks). If the object's name property is empty, the ID number is identified instead.
