How to identify hilited lines in a list field

[MisterX]

Ian,

try this

<script>
local lastselectedlines

on mouseup

if the hilidedlines of me is not lastselectedlines then
  parse me
  doyouscript
  -- remember last status
  put the hilitedlines of me into lastselectedlines
end mouseup
</script>

the local out of the handler remembers what happened last...
Very powerful feature...

Use the custom props instead of the local handler
if you need this set between different runs of the program...
