[Gambas-user] Help inaccuracy or bug?

[Robert Rowe]

You are correct. I guess I'm too used to VB.Net. It adds the braces 
automatically.

I guess the braces instruct the interpreter to return a value from 
methods while it returns a reference to the method if braces aren't 
used. there's always so much to learn when you start using a new language.

It's starting to affect me the other way too. I've been writing in 
gambas at home so much that I'm starting to try to write gambas code in 
VB.Net at work. That doesn't work very well. :)
