for loop syntax error

[nupogodi]

An empty list yields "Syntax error in control statement" but it's actually a valid statement

Code: Select all

%mylist = "A B C" 'this is ok %mylist = " " 'this should also be valid for %s {%mylist} %t = %s next

No, it is not valid

[nupogodi]

Apparently it's valid in any other programming language in the world. In case of Python for example:

for c in "":
print c

Code: Select all

For %c “” Statusline {%c} Next
