I beleive it is sent by the engine with both
tool modes, but the IDE traps it for its own purposes and does not pass
it to your stacks.

is there a account of what the IDE does & is?

The IDE is the Integrated Development Environment, a generic term for the Revolution interface.


The Revolution system is comprised of two parts: the engine which gets bound to your stack files when you make a standaline, and the tools and menus that make up Rev's interface. The engine is compiled from C++, and has no interface of its own. The development environment is scripted components (and a few optional externals) which make up all of the visible elements of Rev.

There's a lot of code in the IDE, so I wouldn't begin to know all of the things it does. But to get a feel for which messages are intercepted you can do two things:

- Read the frontScripts and backScripts that are active when
  the IDE is running.

- Use UmbrellaMan to log events for you:
