Enter this in the message box and you'll see the script:

   edit script of btn "revReshape" of cd 1 of stack "revLibrary"

When you reshape a selected graphic, this script is made into a 
temporary frontScript, and the revSetMarkers handler is executed 
(which sets up the standard visual appearance of the little square 
markers at the points of the graphic).

The frontScript handles mouse clicks, with a variety of special 
behaviors such as command-clicking a point to remove it. It basically 
tracks the mouse while it's down, continually updating the graphic's 
points property to reflect the user's moving one of the control 
points. (I notice the dreaded "repeat until the mouse is down" makes 
an appearance ;-)
