I use getstringkeys personally.
PHP Code:
for (temp.item: getstringkeys("clientr.item.")) {
temp.itemvarname = "clientr.item." @ temp.item;
}
On Zodiac our item values are stored in variables: clientr.item-Itemname so the function ends up looking like: getstringkeys("clientr.item-"); so it's not limited by dot notation in that sense.
