Tip:
There are globals, script locals, and handler locals.
Globals belong to Revolution, not the stack or script that created
them in memory.
These values persist even if the stack is removed from memory.
Script locals are kept in memory as long as the stack is open.
In a way. like globals, but these are only available to handlers and
functions in the *same* script.
Declaring a script local variable "shoebox" in different script
containers creates separate shoeboxes. Each shoebox will die when the
script is removed from memory.
Oh! aha!.. that's it... I don't think I ever used a script local, ever,
until building this stack.
I normally always use handler locals. But I thought I might improve on
"best practices" and declare them first.
But I did not know that the persistence nature of the local would change.
Learn something new every day...
Thanks for clearing that up.
