"send" vs "dispatch"

[Monte Goulding]

One of the main reasons I implemented send and call with params in the PR that has been mentioned is because it allows for referenced parameters. The following is an error:

on mouseUp
   local tBar
   send “foo tBar” to me
   answer tBar
end mouseUp

on foo @rBar
   put “Howdy" into rBar
end foo

While this works:

on mouseUp
   local tBar
   send “foo” to me with tBar
   answer tBar // answers “Howdy"
end mouseUp

Of course you can’t use referenced params like this using send in time form.
