@highend: Not that I'm disagreeing, but - I never needed a return for those load() ops, in fact it never occurred to me I could use it that way. Any other benefit I may gather from using it the way you suggested? Or the other way round... any harm by doing that way?
Thanks for the input!

01. It assumes (for others) that they can call it like a function -> Script error
02. I know that it currently works but the only relevant source is the help file regarding syntax
If the support for it (if there is any
) is dropped -> More script errors *g*

Thanks!

I think you can actually write all current scripting COMMANDS as if they were FUNCTIONS -- maybe it has to do with historical syntax rules, I don't know -- but the fact is this syntax does not match scripting ref and is therefore discouraged.
For example,
Code: Select all
$a="B"; assert $a=="A", '$a has wrong value!';
$a="B"; assert($a=="A", '$a has wrong value!');
work the same (currently), but the official syntax is:
Code: Select all
assert condition, [message], [continue=0] // no braces!
So the second usage confuses newbies now, not to mention that it might fail more rigorous syntax checking in the future.
