Return - Expected error

[SlimShady]

Tested with v3.0.103.173

I expected to see an error when I put Return outside a function.

I just made a test script and I noticed it never reached my message box!

See here.

Return 0
MsgBox(64, "Test", "I expected to see an error or something...")

Isn't this acting like an Exit(0)?

It should be, but it doesn't. It seems to exit the main loop, but doesn't actually return the value to the system. That to me is the error.

Compile this or it won't work:

If $CmdLine[0] > 0 Then
    MsgBox(4096, "", "Returning 100")
    Return 100
Else
    MsgBox(4096, "Returned", RunWait(@ScriptFullPath & " blah"))
EndIf

My expectation is that the second MsgBox should say 100, but it says 0. At global scope, Return should be the same as Exit including passing the return value to the system.

Ok. I did not know that Return can be used outside a function.
