Here's another one of those strange things floating around in the source code that are occasionally manifested in the interface: in Scratch 1.3, try making a variable called %x. An empty reporter block will appear with a combobox in it. Click on the combobox, and a "record" option appears. Now for the good stuff: an "enter scene name" dialog appears! I wonder if someone from the Scratch team could shed light on this, or will it go the way of the experimental video and webcam support? Anyway, try it for yourself!

Yeah thats weird, maybe this was an experimentel the Scratch Team made or they just didnt tell us.

Alos try to make a variable call %y, another weird thing happens.

I think those are Squeak/Smalltalk commands. I saw a few while exploring the source code. I tried using the print command, %d, and got a Squeak error, right inside of Scratch! Let's find out if any of them do something useful.
Some I've found:
%b sticks a boolean in a round block, maybe this could be useful to convert the 1's and 0's of booleans into usable numbers.

Alright, lets see...
%a = shows a round block with volume inside of it
%b = boolean in round block
%c = color in round block
%d = error
%e = gives brodcast messages in round block
%f = give sqrt and others from "numbers" in round block
%g = effects in round block from "looks" section
%h = sensor buttons in round block
I'll get more later...
