Hy everybody
I'm trying to write a function like
function(){
final=$1
return $final
}
but I get following error:
"return: bad non-numeric arg '[content of $final]'"
what shall I do? Isn't it possible to return strings?
thanks

Print the string, and call the function with backticks. Return codes (what you can pass back with exit or return) are always numeric, in the range 0 to 255.
value=`function "fnordness"`
It works, thanks a lot!
