Re: Condtional parameters in handler calls

Re: Condtional parameters in handler calls

How about something like this? command myCommand parm1,parm2,parm3 put parm1 && parm2 && parm3 end myCommand function myFunc parm1,parm2,pConditional if value(pConditional) then return parm1 else return parm2 end if end myFunc on mouseup myCommand 14,myFunc(3,22,"parm1
