$argsCheck is a guard function that enforces argument count constraints at the beginning of a command. It is the recommended way to validate user input before processing — cleaner and more concise than manual $if/$stop combinations.

How It Works

1. The current argument count ($argCount) is compared to the specified count using the given operator.
2. If the condition is true, execution continues to the next line.
3. If the condition is false, the errorMessage is sent to the user and the command stops executing immediately — no further code in the command runs.

Operators

Operator	Meaning	Condition passes when..
>=	Greater or equal	$argCount >= count
>	Strictly greater	$argCount > count
<=	Less or equal	$argCount <= count
<	Strictly less	$argCount < count

Best Practices

• Place $argsCheck at the very top of your command, before any other logic.
• Write clear, actionable error messages that tell the user what they did wrong and how to fix it.
• Use $argsCheck[>=;N;...] for minimum argument requirements — the most common use case.
• Use $argsCheck[<=;N;...] to enforce maximums.
• Combine two checks for exact count requirements (as shown in the examples).

Comparison with Manual Validation

Without $argsCheck:

$if[$argCount<2]
Error: at least 2 arguments required.
$stop
$endif

With $argsCheck (equivalent, cleaner):

$argsCheck[>=;2;Error: at least 2 arguments required.]
