Alternatively, you could save them in compound variables using an old
REXX convention to keep track of them:
tails.0 = 0
call addtail mytail
call addtail yourtail
/* tails.0: 2
tails.1: MYTAIL
tails.2: YOURTAIL */
exit
addtail: proc expose tails.
tails.0 = tails.0 + 1
i = tails.0
parse pull tails.i .
return
