Ken, Wow!
That is funny. This code you wrote is so close to Lingo that it would almost execute properly as it is in Director. I'll bet you hear this all the time here. All I need is a timer message for start of loop and end of loop to do timing comparisons. I don't suppose it's "put the ticks" or "startTimer" & "put the timer" ? This is so amazing. I get to learn a new language that seems almost the same as one that I already know. What about books? I was looking at Amazon.com for anything and I found nothing. I did discover several of the websites that support RR. They are loaded with goodies and quite helpful.
