Yes, in any OS pre-OS 9 (maybe 8.6), you'd have to do that if compiling
yourself from what I sent in email. I forgot that. (A compiled script posted
to AS Central or elsewhere and downloaded to an older system would work
fine, and if you opened it on your system you'd actually see the "on error"
line there without my having to put it there! So normally I don't have to
worry about this.)

Well, it has to have a name, It's better than [blank]. it doesn't really
matter until you want to get rid of it or edit it. Then it might be useful
instead of having to open up 100 blank-named signatures.
