How do I create a custom error with a custom message IN an alias which will trigger the above in whatever alias called my alias?

Depending on where you want to handle the error information, I use something akin to the following: Code: alias example { set -u0 %MyError Some Error } alias MyCaller { example if (%MyError) { goto error } :error var %error = $iif(%MyError, $v1, $error) reseterror if (%error != $null) { ;; Error occured } } Last edited by FroggieDaFrog; 16/09/18 02:01 PM.
