Help me out here!
Either I'm having a brainfreeze or age is catching up with me.
I can't figure out what has been done with the plug in folder that was in my
Revolution (edition). And all the documentation that has been provided is
leaving me stumped.
Has anyone in the list managed to get

Just want to confirm I understand these commands.
I tend to write applications that run continuously. They loop over and over
doing the same tasks and pretty much never get to a point to where they halt
waiting for user input. Thus for me the current script never finishes executing.

If you're doing something like a repeat forever loop, somewhere in the loop
you should have a wait with messages command so the script has breathing
room to execute other things.
IE:
wait 10 milliseconds with messages
As for getting web urls, have you looked at the load command?

Will look at load and callback as a way to implement this kind of multitasking,

I don't really know what you intend, but you probably do not want to lock
yourself into a repeat loop. As others have suggested, send in time with
messages is very effective, and then call that again:
on myMessage
doYourStuff
send myMessage to me in 1 miilisecond with messages
end
If you DO use a repeat loop, the 'wait time with messages' is pretty much
obligatory right? So you can setup an exit strategy and so that pending
messages (such as sends and dispatches) will still be processed, right?

Obligatory. Otherwise there is no vehicle for any other interaction. This
was the basis for last week's thread, where it was discussed how to dig into
a running process from outside that process. You cannot.
Fortunately, in this case the wait command is within the operating
handler, and
This seems like a good pattern for an app driven by a human. The apps I tend to
write launch and then run forever. They constantly look into a database to see
if there is something they should be doing.

Have never used it but it seems like a good thing to include as a general
housekeeping kind of thing.

Hi all,
I have a very strange situation where controls get a ID of 0.
ID zero is reserved for all the template objects (templateButton,
templateField, etc.) It does sound like a bug, but it may have something
to do with copying the template object. It would be good to
