I can’t help wondering if there’s a general guideline we can apply here where if there’s a strong case for a verb then refactor as a command and if there isn’t then use a function and leverage the implied verb in the statement. I think there may be an exception with a function that returns a mutated form of the first parameter though (arrayEncode, baseConvert etc), however, they could have easily been commands… Cheers Monte _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
