listpane command reads:
whatever list modes we will get int he future.
it should be:
whatever list modes we will get in the future.
don't know if this fits here, tho.

apparently the namespace command isn't mentioned in the scripting ref at all?

Yes, I made a note on this in the change log at v15.00.0313 - 2015-04-10 16:40.
This feature is officially still in experimental stage.

I don't think that this is true anymore. (And I am happy about that.) But the Help still contains it under the ForEach:
If ListOfTokens is nothing ("") the loop will still be executed one time with $variable set to nothing.

But you can control this by MsgOnEmpty:LittleBiG wrote:I don't think that this is true anymore. (And I am happy about that.) But the Help still contains it under the ForEach:If ListOfTokens is nothing ("") the loop will still be executed one time with $variable set to nothing.
In MsgOnEmpty you can state an error message for the case that ListOfTokens is empty. If MsgOnEmpty is given (even as empty string "") the loop will not be executed at all.
(But I didn't test it, though.)

The same true if it is not given. So what I quoted is obsolete.If MsgOnEmpty is given (even as empty string "") the loop will not be executed at all.

if I understand you correct I must say "no".LittleBiG wrote:The same true if it is not given. So what I quoted is obsolete.If MsgOnEmpty is given (even as empty string "") the loop will not be executed at all.
If MsgOnEmpty is not specified at all (i.e. neither "" nor "anything"), and ListOfTokens is empty, the loop is executed once, with $variable = "".
If MsgOnEmpty *is* specified and ListOfTokens is empty, the loop is *not* executed at all.

That's what I want to explain: if the ListOfToken is empty, it doesn't matter if you omit the MsgOnEmpty or set to "". The loop won't be executed at all, not even once. And this is the right way of working. I am just looking forward to the time when the help will reflect this.

LittleBiG is right, the docs need updated.
I don't recall the previous behavior and am too lazy to check but in v16.90.0102 the inner-block is never executed for an empty list ($list = ''). However, keep in mind that referencing an unset variable treats its name as a literal string. In which case the inner-block will be executed:
The 'e'/empty flag and MsgOnEmpty do not come into play here, as the list is technically not empty.
Further, MsgOnEmpty will only be shown when this is true:Which means the message will NOT be shown when the list is full of empty items, as seen here:

echo quote($item);

Code: Select all
IsSet($list) && $list == ''Code: Select all
$list = '|';
foreach($item, $list,, 'e', 'List is empty') {
// etc.

A very minor nit... on the web site for Custom Support which is located under the Custom heading on the XYplorer site, states, "You are a registered user who needs a customized script to tune up a specific workflow?" As worded, this is not a question. It's a statement. Should be "Are you a registered...?

OK, I thought this works in English (in German it does). Thanks.

Scripting - Switch Statements
$beer = 'Kirin'; example
";" is wrong
$beer = 'Kirin'; example
Code: Select all
default;
