Suppress and force results

I thought the following might be useful ...

For anyone who is using scripts extensively, like I am, to simplify coding it is good to know when a script gets executed, when the result in put into the template, and also, what happens when a variant is set a script. The following are the results that I found after extensive testing that should be a guide to everyone else.

FILLPOINT	RESULT
%[^________]	Will force result into document.
%[~_________]	Will suppress variable or result of script.
%[x= _____ ]	Will force execution of script, but not put in any result.
%[index=0]	Sets index to "0" but no resulting value.
%[^index=index + 1]	Adds "1" to Index and puts in the current value of Index.
%[~Scripts.Selectr('\Demo','DemoGFS']	Will run the DemoGFS script but suppress the result.
%[Scripts.Select('\Demo','DemoGFS']	Will run the DemoGFS script and put in the result.
%[x=Scripts.Select('\Demo','DemoGFS']	Will run the DemoGFS script and set "x" to the result.
%[x]	Will show the value of the DemoGFS when "x" was last set.
%[^x=Scripts.Select('\Demo','DemoGFS']	Will run the DemoGFS script, set X to the result and Display the result.

Have fun! Read this closely and memorize.
