How does a command find out who called it?

[Mark Schonewille]

Ken,

To quickly simulate a callback message, I made a button with the script

on mouseUp
     send "bla" to me in 0 secs
end mouseUp

and a stack script

on bla
     put the executioncontexts
end bla

All I get in the message box is one line, referring to the stack. I don't think your approach works for Ken Corey.

If the card script asks for the executionContexts, you'll get two lines - the first line being the long id of button 1, and the second being the long id of the card that had the handler that asked for the executionContexts.
