Delayed Mouse Clicks

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Trevor,

The easiest solution to take care of multiple clicks is to set the  
cursor to watch while the script is running. If you are running a  
handler with messages, you might need to set a property.

on mouseUp
   if the cRunning of me is false then
     set the cRunning of me to true
     repeat forever with messages
       -- do whatever you need in your repeat loop
       -- exit repeat when finished
     end repeat
     set the cRunning of to false
   else
     beep
   end if
end mouseUp

You can change the icon in the dock using the icon property: set the  
icon of this stack to 1234 (1234 would be the number of an image).

Best,

Mark
