Hi! How can I access the nth input line expression unevaluated without using InString? I am driving the Mathematica kernel via J/Link by sending multiple EnterExpressionPackets to the kernel. Later I want to access a preceding input expression in its unevaluated form. Because expression packets aren't strings the kernel does not seem to assign them to InString[n] but only records them in In[n]. When calling In[n] later, how can I prevent In[n] from re-evaluating the input line and make it return the input expression unevaluated? Thanks, Sascha
