Won't work.
Code:
    MsgBox ; comma is missing
    (LTrim
    a line
    a 2nd line
    the last line
    )
Working...
Code:
    MsgBox, ; comma added
    (LTrim
    a line
    a 2nd line
    the last line
    )

Might be covered by this, BTBH ... I'm not sure Shocked

Tip: The first comma of any command may be omitted (except when the first parameter is blank). For example:

MsgBox This is ok.
MsgBox, This is ok too (it has an explicit comma).


A bug? A feature??

Thanks, I remember to have seen that too, but wasn't sure if this has to be taken as mandatory. To add something similar to this would make sense, or?

I recommend this re-wording...
