Making one a function of the : other won't help. Hi ! 4ge, used as a function, may return its results into standard output, like other UNIX processes (if it's not interactive), or into text file that must be read by calling program. But to make such a reading possible for 4gl programs You must extend your fglgo with special functions. I suppose that such an extension of 4gl function set with string functions, functions for manipulating with flexible-sized arrays, returning exit code etc can make 4gl programming easier.
