matchText is a function, not a handler. If you don't give it somewhere
to put the result, you will get an error.

This script works perfectly:
on mouseUp
   put matchText("Goodbye","bye")
end mouseUp

This gives the "handler not found" error:
on mouseUp
   matchText("Goodbye","bye")
end mouseUp

HTH,
