Best way? Always debatable.

(That's cool Colin, I never thought of that for score-based stuff)
Another approach is to ditch frames, and just go time-based,
substituting a timeout object for the usual frame events. Of course,
that could mean ditching the score as well, and driving your boat via
lingo. I tend to do it all via lingo, substituting frame transitions for
imaging lingo transitions, and frames for timeouts. Some say I'm crazy.
That's the beauty of Dir, though - you can do it one way or the other,
or come up with a nicely blended version.
