I think Graham may mean something slightly different. age1: 45 age2: func [] [return ask "how old are you"] All these return the value associated with age1: age1 == 45 :age1 == 45 get 'age1 == 45 But watch the difference with 'age2 age2 how old are you(escape) ;; ie executes the function :age2 ;; appears to do nothing get 'age2 ;; ditto So try: type? :age2 == function! ;;ah ha! it returns the function, rather than executes it probe get 'age2 ;; ditto func [][return ask "how old are you"] See the difference?
