I'm looking for a name for that Revolution programming style that involves using "send...in ..." and/or callbacks, such as the socket callbacks.

Here are some candidates:
message programming
timers, polls & callbacks
extended event programming
send-cycle programming
the callback and send
handlers are everywhere and I can't figure out how this stack works!

Here are some ideas which might be useful. Just "Messaging" is what an Objective-C book calls it.

A Smalltalk Design Patterns book has a section "Behavior / Messages" with the following message patterns. The OO ones wouldn't apply to RunRev.

Message
Choosing Message
Decomposing Message
Intention Revealing Message
Intention Revealing Selector
Dispatched Interpretation
Double Dispatch
Mediating Protocol
Super
Extending Super
Modifying Super
Delegation
Simple Delegation
Self Delegation
Pluggable Behavior
Pluggable Selector
Pluggable Block
Collection Parameter
