gb2 needs a rework about -g-pl HOT 5 CLOSED

Could you please post an example of how you see gb2 being used? I really see this as a return/exit. On the highest level, it exits the process and if the variable passed is an integer that's the exit code, in functions it is used as a return.

If we don't implement threads, /thread could be a break.

I preferred [expression].jpg for return, especially with the new void value. Any function returning void:

forever alone.jpg

from -g-pl.

That would be nice. But I'd still like gb2 for top level stuff.

Then .jpg shall be break? I assume this means we have to disallow . in names as well?

graydude: As it's in the spec right now, “gb2” will break out of blocks (and as mentioned, the top level file behaves like a huge block, the { and } are added during preprocessing). This means a function like >function { >mfw "this and" gb2 "that" } will return "that" because the { } block surrounding it belongs to the function. It doesn't explicitly deal with functions, a function that simply returns "that" could have been written >function "that". It will thus have the (potentially undesired) effect of also breaking out of conditionals or other blocks.

Closing this, see issue #12 for more information.
