scripting: numbered arguments QA

[PeterH]

I'm afraid that I've got it now. Let me try:
- 5:=2 specifies a value for the 6th variable (i.e. pos 5)
- it is at pos 3, and counts as such (i.e. really occupies this position)
- so the next (non-pos) operand counts as pos 4

Sorry to say: I never would have expected the last 2 lines. Till now I never saw a non-pos operand "shift" the meaning of pos operands - always saw them ignored in sense of position. So I understand my misunderstanding

From this view I would never ever code a pos operand right of a numbered operand.

Edit: would be interesting to here who ever did that
