In principle you can. For example the following works OK:
<hansl>
function scalar fun2 (scalar x)
return 2*x
end function
function scalar fun1 (scalar x)
return fun2(3*x)
end function
eval fun1(2)
</hansl>
Can you give us a case where this sort of thing fails?
Hmm, perhaps it is only "void" which cannot be piped. "return null" is
also invalid in this case.

I can't reproduce that:
Hmm, perhaps it was my mistake. I tried different things before and also made the error to
assign first an empty list to a bundle and then a series to the bundle, which changed the
element from a list to a copy of the series... Then I reread the manual and found my
mistake. Might be that I should have put it from the list

That's serious, but not something that anyone has reported before.
This is on Windows? In English or in German? (Not that that should make a
difference.) 64-bit or 32-bit build? (This may make a
difference.) And you're talking about the little "two windows" button that
pops down a list of gretl windows?
Yes, the little two windows button. gretl version 2017e-git, 64bit english
But I cannot reproduce it at will... I guess it is not something that happens with normal
usage. I changed a lot in many scripts and rerun them and had very long output windows
(using debug 2). Also, as Sven mentioned, I had two instances open. I will keep an eye on
it and try to reproduce it, the next time and report back.
