That's what script local variables are. Declare them at the top of the
script (or before any other handler uses them) and all handlers in that
script (and that script only) have access to it:
local sCounter
on openCard
put 0 into sCounter
end openCard
on whatever
add 1 to sCounter
end whatever
on somethingElse
subtract 5 from sCounter
end somethingElse
As long as all these handlers are in the same script, they can all
access sCounter. Other scripts don't know about it. See "local" in the
dictionary.
