Testing if the mouse clicked on ME (button)?!

[Stephen Barncard]

Hi Heather: you should check out the "Message Mechanics" stack by 
list member Dar Scott.  A well-written stack and essential learning 
experience to get you head around messages and timers. Many AHA 
moments. Then you can do other stuff while your timer runs.

http://www.swcp.com/dsc/revstacks.html

A Primer on Message Mechanics. This module (stack file) is a primer 
on using send, cancel, pendingMessages and callbacks. Those are the 
basic Revolution components needed to get your stacks to do several 
things at the same time. The primer starts from the basics and builds 
on those, providing examples and details along the way. It is 88 tiny 
pages long and if that is not long enough for you, note that it is 
set up so you can add your own pages. It is fun and... It is Free!
