anyways, saying that having to declare and initialise variables separately increases the line count of a script is not true.




hmm, how would this go into one line
Code:

Dim $var
$var = "string"



Besides, it is a simple thing to implement, and it saves time at least. When you decide to use a variable of which you already know what info it is gonna hold it IS far easier to use Code:
 Dim $var = "string"
