Basic Cubescript: Variables

[V-Man]

In the SVN, those return lists to support the new multiple selection feature.
Make a selection, hold CTRL, and make another selection.
You can examine the lists of selections using
[cubescript]
/echo (selx) (sely) (selxs) (selys)
[/cubescript]

The tradeoff is that they aren't as easily modifiable in this manner anymore. Look at the current maptools.cfg (SVN of course) for some examples of how to mess around with them. :D

To address the theme: These variables now store and manipulate lists rather than single items. In that way, they are a lot more like commands...
