Can't return plain text with modifiers

[jnvsor]

Your ~ modifier xors the returned string. You can fix that by xoring it twice (@~~d("...")) but honestly the return modifier should just be used on its own. (If you used any other modifier the returned string would be irretrievable, eg. @!d() casting the output to a bool)

Your second example is what you should use, though you can also create a helper function dedicated to returning plain text.

Thank you for your answer, yes this is what I ended up with. I leave it here also in case someone may need it

Kint::$aliases[] = ['yourClass', 'td'];

class yourClass 
{
   public static function td(...$args)  {
        

        if (false === Kint::$enabled_mode) {
             return 0;
        }

        $kstash = Kint::$enabled_mode;

        Kint::$enabled_mode = Kint::MODE_TEXT;
        Kint::$return = true;

        $out = Kint::dump(...$args);

        Kint::$enabled_mode = $kstash;
        Kint::$return = false;

        return $out;
    }
}
