Added a '_string' option for ADTs

[theaysnap]

ADTs (abstract data types) use the ‘_morph’ property to change the look of the adt, and the ‘_type’ property to configure the type of the adt.

I suggest we add a new property ‘_string’ which defines what the adt would output when passed through a join []@delInput @verticalEllipsis @addInput block, similar to the .toString() method in Javascript.

I am not sure if this belongs in this category but Ill still continue.

I am asking if there will be method-like things in snap like maybe _add or _div so we could have objects interact with already existing operators. so I could do this

also idk why the snapblocks arent working right now, maybe I’m typing it wrong (I do have the tags)

Not planned, nope. Instead you can just edit whichever block you want to overload and do it yourself.

This is what Jens said. I do hope at least this and a _call gets added though

you might still be able to implement it using continuations, they eventually figure it out here:

Custom Reporter Speech Balloon Formatting (and Custom Types)

Hello. As the title states, I wanted to suggest custom speech balloon formatting for reporters and predicates (when clicked in the editor). Like Scratch, the balloon can display a text string or number. However, Snap*!* has first-class lists, blocks, and objects—all of which can be shown in a balloon. Two-dimensional lists can even appear as tables! I don't have any issues with these, but they can be restrictive if you are trying to implement foreign data structures or would just like to display…
