Hi Irv,
I'm hoping you're right. The reason I was worried that there may be a more
phlegmatic reason was that there was a time (D4 or D5 I think) when I
noticed that some frame scripts would inexplicably get ignored, and the only
way I could get Director to recompile and use them was to change the script
by adding "nothing" or a comment.
