I know there have been a number of arguments for using $= or $RC=.. If you reuse the Variable, I could understand assigning a variable. Whereas, if you are doing testing, what is the harm in using a simple $= to debug the results?
It maybe considered poor practice to assign a "nul" variable, but can also be quite helpful. I can see the argument as it being a "double-edged" sword when trying to trim things down.
On a side note: I have been already swayed to use single quotes (thanks Les) and to trim down spaces and length of variables (thanks Jooel)..
Cheers!
