Those belong later. This release strengthens the small scripting core first. + +## Beginner syntax kept simple + +Claro now accepts: + +```claro +SET name "Jon" +SET name TO "Jon" +SET name to "Jon" +ASK "What is your name?" name +END +``` + +The older forms still work: + +```claro +ASK "What is your name?" AS name +ENDIF +DONE +LEARNED +ENDTRY +``` + +## Practical scripting additions + +RC6 adds command-line arguments, environment lookup, folder/file helpers, command output capture, random numbers, text helpers, and list helpers. + +These are meant to make Claro useful for small real scripts while staying readable.
