set assigns a value to an item→.

Core Syntax

set %Item% Extended-RValue

Creates a new, or overwrites and existing, item references by %Item%. The common RValue's are explained below, but are fully documented in Extended RValue→.

String Expansion Syntax

set %Item% Standard-RValue

Sets the content of the provided item reference to the Standard RValue expansion→. If the item already exists it will be replaced, otherwise it will be created.

Refer reset→ to clear an item.

Vector Syntax

set %Name% withvector
  Value0
  ...
  ValueN
end

Creates a new vector collection with the provided initial values (without values an empty vector is created, though end is still required).

Refer to putin→ to add items to the vector.

Map Syntax

set %Name% with
  %Name1% Value1
  ...
  %NameN% ValueN
end

Creates a map with the given entries. Refer to with→

Setting values

To set values in a map you can use the normal item→ syntax specifying a traversal. This will be automatically created when used as an LValue, and will cause an error for Standard-RValue if not existing.

set %Map:Entry% value
somefunc %Map:Entry%
