Please suggest an easy way to deactivate a fields scripts

[Jim Ault]

Why not do something like this

if the optionKey is down then
get the deactivateMode of me
if it is true then set the deactivateMode of me to false
else set the deactivateMode of me to true
save this stack
end if
end if

if the deactivateMode of me of me is false then
    execute these lines
    line 15 to -2 of the script
end if

--thus the optionKey toggles the deactivate mode of the field
--and saves this with the stack
--it is reversible
