finding "global" procedures

[Dan Shafer]

You raise an important issue. To program effectively in Revolution,  
you really need to understand the message-passing hierarchy. Nobody  
has explained it better than Richard Gaskin at:

http://www.fourthworld.com/embassy/articles/revolution_message_path.html

There is no concept of global handlers. If you want a handler to be  
accessible to all the message handlers in a given stack file, just  
put it in the mainstack. If you want it available across multiple  
stack files, you'll need to create it as its own mainstack and then  
include it by making it a library with "start using."
