Setting "it" is the easy part. Convincing the compiler to accept "it"
after a command is hard.
on DarzCommand
do "put 123 into it"
-- now 123 is in both it and the result
return it
end DarzCommand
on mouseUp
DarzCommand
put it -- this will give a compiler error
end mouseUp
...while...
function DarzCommand
do "put 123 into it"
-- now 123 is in both it and the result
return it
end DarzCommand
on mouseUp pMouseBtnNo
get DarzOwnVersionOfAsk(13)
if it is 123 then
put "yep"
else
put "nope"
end if
end mouseUp
works as designed.
