Haven't figured this one out, yet... How can you (from Blitz3D) pass a parameter that can be read in the CommandLine$() on another Blitz3D program? Haven't figured it out yet... Thanks in advance!

I just knew it would be that obvious... And can a blitz3D Proggy return anything to the caller? like, in C++ you put in the main loop return result; and that's it! but i don't get that in Blitz3D...

AFAIK no. Probably with a userlib extension.

only by writing it down in a file
