ext_sayString - done handling

Hello List,

I'm sure this is an easy one for many, the problem being whether or not
there is a "with message" or "wait until the speaking is over" technique for
handling speaking one thing after another using the external. I have a
repeat with the general design:

repeat until stopRunning=true
  repeat for each line thisMsg in serverMessages
    
    send "updateMessages" to this stack
    ext_sayString thisMsg
    
  end repeat
end repeat


Which runs out of control.

Sorry if this question is a regular, I have been off-list for a long time
and searching the list on the web is painful, thanks,

David Kwinter
