If I have a template that accepts tokenized code to build something, it will create the exact debug symbol with this argument supplied which makes the symbols hard to read and/or waste of memory.

Is there any way to truncate or transform it like that?

app.fun!"writeln(\"Hello, World\");" => app.fun!"_sym__13"

I can pass a pointer to the template but that results in the same symbol. Getting the raw integer value of the pointer instead isn't allowed in compile it seems.
