Ah, I see what you were saying now. It looks like it will work to
me if
you think it is better stylistically.

Yeah, having a function return an error *and* an I/O parameter at the
same time is more complicated and error prone instead of when you
have
a single retval and only input parameters.

I'd say.

Yea, I agree it's better this way, and at first I just missed your
point. By "if you think it's better", I just meant that if someone told
me to do it the other way I wouldn't die on the hill.
