How does a command find out who called it?

[Bob Sneidar]

In this context it would not matter, but in another context, where you wanted the send command executed after all current scripts terminate, that would be the way to do it. Even if you said, "in 1 second", if the current running script took 3 seconds to terminate, the send command would execute 3 seconds later. 

Forgive me if you already knew this.
