Interesting. If I modify foo1 like that: function foo1 put foo2() into myvar2 put "anotherTest" into myvar3 end foo1
the process still returns “Test”. I can only guess that ‘return’ saves the returned value in a ‘last in, first out’ pile somewhere and that the top value is used by the calling script(s) as long as a new one is not put on the pile by another ‘return’… the pile being cleared only at iddle time.
