Can Procedures Be Disabled?

-----------------------------------

Is there any command in Turing that can disable a procedure. 

I have an if condition in my program and when the if condition is true, I want all the procedures that follow it, to be disabled or not to show on the run screen.

I would really appreciate any suggestions.  :|

You could do something like

procedure foo()
if global_flag then
   return
end if
...
end foo

Or, you can only call the procedure if a certain condition is true.

if condition then
    procedure_call()
end if

I'd go the condition option. 

P.S. This is off topic but, what does "..." do in Turing?

It does nothing... have you ever tried running code with ... in Turing? It just means "put your code here"

I think that he may mean .. which causes the next line of output to be put on the same line rather than a new line.

I have and it just gives me an error. I just wanted to know because I've seen it around a lot and I wanted to know maybe I was using it wrong. I was putting it by itself, but there are other words/symbols like; and, or, of, end, exit, (,), .., : etc. that need to be accompanied by other words/symbols to work properly. I just wanted to know if this was one of them, but now I know it isn't.

Indeed ... is usually a placeholder for more text. It often represents silence when speech is expected, such as in Final Fantasy games ;) Here it could be read as "your code goes here".
