Hi Dima,

Yes, there is a way. Simply assign a value inside the function that gets
string but returns number (and discard the return value) 
as show in the example below:

assigwithprint = "Test 1";
strlen( assignwithoutprint = "Test 2" );

Q: why texts are written automatically?
A: to save you the time writing "Write() or PRINT" in every line of the commentary,
and because assignments in AFL work similar to C++ (they have a value,
so constructs like a = b = c = d = 1 work) the string is displayed as it would be without the assignment.

ISWITCH - postponed to 3.7.
