The functionality sounds good, but may I put in a vote for readable syntax, instead of this C-like horror? ;-) For example, this one has been discussed pretty extensively on the Xtalk list:


  get the offsets of "<a>" in "<a>foo</a><a>bar</a><a>baz</a>"

returning either the array as above (although I'm a bit allergic to arrays in cases where they're not absolutely needed - difficult to display for debugging, etc.),

<hot button>
The fact that arrays aren't displayed in the debugger is a deficiency of the debugger and ought to be fixed, not an inherent problem of arrays. It could be associated with displaying multiple lines (e.g. using "\n" or "<cr><lf> or ....) in the debugger.


Nevertheless, returning a comma-separated list would be much nicer than an array.

or, as in most return values, a simple comma-delimited list: 1,10,20.
