pass

[Eric Chatonet]

Hi Lars,

If you want to skip sytem messages just lock messages:

on MyGo
   lock messages
   repeat x times
     go next
     do this
     do that

As for pass, this control structure means that you let the message  
going along in the hierarchy after doing your stuff so other "higher"  
objects can intercept it.

The Message Hierarchy scripting conference stack is now online and  
available for download at:

This conference stack was written and will be presented by Richard  
Gaskin, known Revolution guru and frequent contributor to both our  
mailing list and our community. He has done a wonderful job with this  
topic and I am sure you will be equally impressed at his presentation  
this Saturday.
