Hi Thorsten,
one more possibility: you can return a String value in a static method of
the macro:
result = call("myClass.myMethod", arg1, arg2, ...);
Your plugin (here 'myClass.java') should have a method
public static myMethod(String arg1, String arg2, ...)
Of course, the Strings may be also numbers converted to Strings.
