A simple, neat trick for hiding the scoring on the statusline

I’m working to a small, simple TADS2 work, where for story reasons, the score is revealed only at the end of the story (or when the player/PC ended the story), and I share a very simple, neat way for hiding the score from the status line via replace:

replace scoreFormat: function(points, turns)
{
    /* now return a string displaying ???/turns */
    return '???/' + cvtstr(turns);
}

Hope this can helpful to people still appreciating TADS 2, and
Best regards from Italy,

#TIL: People are still writing TADS 2.

Not passing judgment! Keep the flame burning.
