Question: this is a question?@yes@no@perhaps

Code:

alias question {
  echo -s $gettok(%questions,1,64)
  var %i = 2 
  while (%i <= $numtok(%questions,64)) {
    echo -s $gettok(%questions,%i,64)
    inc %i 
  }
}

/question show me
Question: this is a question?
yes
no
perhaps

As I do at random? eg:

/question
Question: this is a question?
perhaps
yes
no

/question
Question: this is a question?
no
perhaps
yes

thanks!

Code:

alias question {
  echo -s $gettok(%questions,1,64)
  var %t %questions
  while ($numtok(%t,64) > 1) && ($r(2,$v1)) {
    echo -s $gettok(%t,$v1,64)
    %t = $deltok(%t,$v1,64)
  }
}

One question, "$r" works like "$rand"?
Works great!!! thanks Wims!

Yes, $r is $rand, and you are welcome

You can do this with tokenize, making the code even shorter without a loop with $gettok() and $numtok():

Code:

alias question {
  tokenize 64 %questions
  echo -s $(,$+($,$r(1,$0)))
}

Never mind Wims. I misread the question. It only returns one result.
