[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] Subject: Stack losing knowledge of bg scripts: HELP!

It appears that your're going the wrong way through the message passing
hierarchy. System messages got first to the object then the background,
then the stack, then Home, then stacksInUse, then Hypercard.
Your stack script can't implicitly call a handler in the background
script.
It CAN "Send" a message to the background script, but that's slow. Just
move the background handler to the stack script.
