$rantok identifier #160992 02/10/06 06:25 PM

poormillionaire P	How about adding the $rantok identifier? So $rantok(%var,32) is the same as $gettok(%var,$rand(1,$numtok(%var,32)),32) It picks a random token like $rantok(lol lol2 lol3,32) = lol or $rantok(lol lol2 lol3,32) = lol3

DaveC D	For now.... alias rantok { if ($isid) { return $gettok($1,$rand(1,$numtok($1,$2)),$2) } \| :error }

It doesn't reset the error or anything (and there's no reason you'd want it to), it just takes up 13 bytes on a harddisk. Won't somebody please think of the bytes!

poormillionaire P	There are many other $tok's that can also be done without being built-in. For example, $numtok(..,32) is the same as $gettok(..,0,32). So it's not about the bytes.
