How do you call a function?
i.e. in "set somevar test()" i want to call test...

Thank you.

set somevar [test]

Here is what I have:
-------------------------------------------------------
proc test {} {
return "text to display"
}

proc content {} {
set somevar test[]

return "$somevar"

}
-------------------------------------------------------
However, the output is "test" (without quotes)

This is on a XOwiki object page, btw, does that make a difference?

Thank you for the responses.
