You mean that:  (or ??)
--- Cut -----------------------------------------------------------------
TYPE xs
    var AS INTEGER
    str AS STRING * 15
END TYPE
DIM t AS xs
t.var = 1
t.str = "This is a test."
CLS
PRINT t.var, t.str
Pout1 t.var, t.str
PRINT t.var, t.str
SUB pout1 (x AS INTEGER, y AS STRING * 15)
    x = x + 1
    y = "Pout 1"
END SUB
--- Cut End --------------------------------------------------------------
