passing an array from a function?

[Dan Bode]

Is it possible for a custom function to return an array?

I am trying to have a function return an array that then can be used as an array to create types.

IE:
get_array() -> ["1", "2", "3"]

array = get_array()
file{array:}


thanks (as always),

Yes, you can return an array from a function. There is one odd case
where you must assign the array to a variable first -- ie. you can't do
something like:

file { get_array(): .... }
