That's clever, and it should work just fine! For my own sanity, I would
factor out the complex bit, something like this:
FSET _indicator(t) iif(t == 0, " ", iif(t + "" >= realnow() + ""), ">", "*");
FSET msgprefix(x) " " + _indicator(trigtime()) + " "
(This logic isn't actually what the OP wanted, but fixing that is left
as an exercise...)
Regards,
Dianne.
