[Peter M. Brigham]

I have this in my frontscript, so I can use control-tab to switch modes:

on tabkey
   if "revNewScriptEditor" is in line 1 of the openstacks then pass tabkey
   if the controlkey is down then
      if the tool = "browse tool" then
         set the tool to "pointer tool"
      else
         set the tool to "browse ttol"
      end if
   else
      pass tabkey
   end if
end tabkey

Works on a Mac.
