[WISH] $switch function

A C-like $switch function would enable huge simplification of some title formatting scripts and make them more readable.
Its syntax could be somewhat like
$switch(cond,n1,r1,n2,r2,n3,r3...)
in which if cond value is equal to n1, result would be r1 and so on; if no match, result would be an empty string.
To make it as simple as possible, n could be required to be a number and there would be no else clause.

Sounds like $select() which is already there.

While I agree that it's not the same, I suspect it'll be pretty close to whatever his use case is. But perhaps OP can elaborate on what that is exactly.

In the meantime here is an example:
Code: [Select]
$select(%tracknumber%),
this is track 1,
this is track 2,
this is track 3)
