I keep getting this Invalid call error whever I try and evaluate something inside. In this case it is:

abs (`currentTime -q`) // the usage is longer, but this seems to be the problem.

I works if I first assign it to a variable then call it abs $barf, but I'd like something better for a runtime expression.

Whats my problem?

really good qustion indeed..

report that one to alias since i think it is a bug..

abs ($x=`currentTime -q`);

would do the job if you like that really bad style scripting :)

cheers
