Forums Scripts & Popups Trouble with return and $result

help file says:



I try playing with it, by doing this:



and typing /test_one i is

and i get:

TRUE Unknown command
-
* /echo: insufficient parameters (line 3, aliases3.ini)

what am i doing wrong here? i should be getting "true" echo'd into my active window, but i'm not. i'm just using it as the help file said, and it doesn't seem to be working

any idea what's going on?

If you call it as a command then the return value is stored in $result

If you call the alias as an $identifier it is replaced with the return value
^ this is why you were seeing TRUE unknown command, since $test_two($1,$2) was replaced with "TRUE" and that was attempted as a command in itself.

correct me if im wrong on this as im just guessing here
$test_two($1,$2) will be identified into the command true
which doesnt excist.. try it with /test_two($1,$2)

that well fail as well
TEST_TWO($1,$2) Unknown command

you cant bracket the parameters if issuing as a command. It sees "TEST_TWO($1,$2)" as one big command name.

But you are right about it being identified into the command true.

LOL how did i miss that, tnxs for the correction.

ah, that explains it.

thank you very much, i can now get on with the script i needed that for
