OK, but how do I describe this:

on doSomething
    doThis
    call "doThat" of button "A"
    send "doOther" to button "B"
end doSomething

If I use "call" or "send" to describe what doSomething does with 
doThis, how do I describe what it does with doThat and doOther?  Would 
"of" and "to" in such a description imply what I want?
