Sorry for the confusion I made small typo.<br>
The code should be :<br>
<pre wrap="">variable x = [1:100:1];
newvar = @x;
is_defined("newvar");
</pre>

It is unclear to me how this would even work. "variable" is
a reserved identifier, and so cannot be used in this context.

        slsh> newvar = @variable;

After which
        slsh> is_defined("newvar");
returns

as expected. What application/version are you trying this within?
HTH,
