the actorlist method seems like too much trouble.
Since the messaging hierarchy sends enterFrame/exitFrame to every
sprite, use a dummy sprite.
Put an unfilled shape, linewidth = 0 in the score and spread it
across the frames you want to watch.
put an 'on enterFrame me' handler on it & do your Lingo watching ...
