let me try this again. i was joking around.
the recursion occured because:
<<
this was funny: while substituting
"tot(l," for "(the number of lines in "
i pasted INSIDE function tot.
HyperCard crashed. the mac crashed.
can anyone identify the "too much recursion"
culprit?"
function tot what,it
if what is "t" then
put the itemdelimiter into saved
set the itemdelimiter to ","
return (the number of items in it)
set the itemdelimiter to saved
else if what is "l" then
return tot(l,it) -- THE JOKE'S ON ME --
else if what is "w" then
return (the number of words in it)
else
debug checkpoint
end if
end tot
>>
i started up usinf command-period immmediately to
stop my startup from executing then looked in the
likely scripts.
well, I thought it was funny.
