Behavior question

Yep, checked it over and over, plus the spelling of the command.  My
lcStackbrowser plugin has a feature where you click on an icon for an
object's behavior and it automatically opens its script - that opens the
correct script so pretty sure all is OK.

I tried dispatching to a different handler - same result.

I have got this to work however.  I deleted the behavior reference and
reset it.  After that, all works well again.  But after quitting LC and
starting it again, the behavior is no longer resolved.

For some reason, the behavior is not being resolved at runtime by LC and
deleting and resetting it forces it to be resolved.
