Name one thing this would be useful for.

Also, how would you use this? You call the block that's passed to the original function? I confused myself just by writing that. No support, too confusing.

define repeat  {block::custom-arg} (number) times
repeat (number::custom-arg)
block::custom-arg
end

This is how it would work. Now obviously practical uses for this would be more complex, as this is a black in itself, but you get the point:

define repeat  {block::custom-arg} (number) times
repeat (number::custom-arg)
block::custom-arg
end[/quote]
yes thats what i had in mind

define block name{script::custom}
repeat (10)
script::custom
end

block name {
move (10) steps
}::custom

Couldn't you just create a new custom block? And remake the example script as

define block name
repeat (10)
script::custom
end


define script
move (10) steps

This could confuse some people, but overall support. Scratch needs to level up from toddler tool.
