difference between function and command and sending parameters

[william humphrey]

I noticed that you can't return a mix of an array and a variable. This
doesn't work (it only works if the params are both simple variables or if
you only have one parm - the array) :

*on* mouseUp

   *put* the first item of MyTest() into myArray

   *put* the keys of myArray

*end* mouseUp


*function* MyTest

   *put* "app" into pfirst[1]

   *put* "win" into pfirst[2]

   *put* "lin" into pfirst[3]

   *put* 2 into psecond

   *return* pfirst, psecond

*end* MyTest


I needed to do something like the above as the second parameter held a
different data item so now I'm trying to figure out another way to do it.
