Type Description
bool Unlike bool in most programming and scripting languages, bool in MacroQuest is unique: Any non-zero value evaluates to true. However, 0 still equals false, and 1 still equals true.

Examples

 /declare MyVar bool
 /varset MyVar ${Bool[This is true]}
 /echo ${MyVar}

This would output TRUE

 /declare MyVar bool
 /varset MyVar ${Bool[NULL]}
 /echo ${MyVar}

This would output FALSE
