Functions

NOTICE The following is not fully implemented yet!

To define a function, one only needs to write the function signature and its body. For example,

func x() {
    echo "Hello, world!"
    echo "Hallo Welt!"
}

You must start with a newline before the { character and end with another newline before the ending } The following is now permitted:

func x() { echo "Hello, world!"
    echo "Hallo Welt!" }
