Description

The result function returns the return value of the last command executed. Most built-in commands only set the result if the command was executed unsuccessfully; otherwise, the result is set to empty. A user-defined command can set the result with a return statement. The answer and ask commands use the result to tell the script if the user cancelled a prompt instead of choosing a proper response.
