Hi Mark,

Its unfortunately not possible when using a 

[switch]
command. A substitution enabled 
[switch]
syntax like... 

switch -glob -- [HTTP::uri] [set y "/test1*"] - [set y "/test2*"] {
} [set y "/test3*"] {
} default {
}

... would always store "/test3*", since it substitutes everything before the actual comparsion starts. The 

[switch -glob/exact]
comparsion has absolutely no room for any kind of 
[identity functions]
to trace the exit... 😞

Cheers, Kai
