The /returnex command immediately leaves the current subroutine and returns a given value back to the calling routine (if one exists). This command performs the same operation as /return with the exception of how it handles spaces. All spaces, including leading, trailing, and multiple, are retained. (Normally multiple spaces are collapsed into a single space and leading and trailing spaces are trimmed off).
This command was added undocumented mainly to allow people to call an identifier in the subtext parameter of $regsubex, without seeing their returned value missing spaces but you can use it for that purpose anywhere.
Synopsis
/returnex [value]
Switches
None
Parameters
- [value] - The value to return to the calling routine
Example
alias space_example { ; Prints 9: <space>A<space><space>B<space><space>C<space> echo -a $len($preserve_space) ; Prints 5: A<space>B<space>C echo -a $len($strip_space) } ; Return with the spaces intact alias preserve_space returnex $get_abc ; Collaps spaces alias strip_space return $get_abc ; Just an example string "<space>A<space><space>B<space><space>C<space>" alias get_abc returnex $+($chr(32), A, $chr(32), $chr(32), B, $chr(32), $chr(32), C, $chr(32))
