I would find it nice to have
Code:
notice x$

produce x$ = White

This would be especially 'nice' when using several 'notice' commands

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. Can you give an example?

Something along this?

Code:
'notice x$
'produce x$ = White

x$ = "White"

call extraNotice "x$"


sub extraNotice var$
    notice var$;"=";eval$(var$)
end sub

tsh73's example is what I was thinking of.
It would also be 'nice' if we could display both string and numeric items with one 'notice' command - like in the 'print' command.

So I presume his solution is acceptable. There's no point building something in that is so easily achievable with a user-defined sub or function, especially as it would result in an unnecessary incompatibility with LB 4.

Apart from options like tabbing and columnar output (which don't really apply to a MessageBox) you already can:

Code:
    pi = 4*atn(1)
    notice "The value of PI is ";pi

Mixing text and numbers in this way is a standard feature of Liberty BASIC.
