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 ...
