[Swift-user] Returning boolean from a procedure

I think this was discussed a while back on the list but I cant find it: Can a 
procedure return a scalar, like Boolean, so that in the following tutorial 
example (q20) we can show the if-condition value coming from a function rather 
than a constant?

I also cant find where the current language open issues are.  Ben, I though 
you said these were in a bugzila bug but cant find it.

Sorry for asking redundant questions...

type messagefile {}

(messagefile t) greeting (string s) {
     app {
         echo s stdout=@filename(t);
     }
}

messagefile outfile <"hello20.txt">;

boolean morning = true;

if(morning) {
   outfile = greeting("good morning");
} else {
   outfile = greeting("good afternoon");
}
