Hi, Hamburger1!

Welcome to the Revolution.

WHile there are lots of options for this in Rev (Xavier has already pointed out two), as an old stackhead myself I think the best way to do this is to create a stack (you can even call it "Home" for all Rev cares!) to store all of this reusable stuff in and then when you have a stack where you want to use it, just use a command like:

start using stack "Home"

This creates what Rev calls a "library" stack. It is so darned efficient and effective that once you get used to it you'll wonder how you lived without it. I have several such libraries that contain related groups of scripts.

You'll also want to spend some time understanding the message path in Rev, which is sufficiently different from HyperCard's to cause some confusion in the early going. My book, "Revolution: Software at th Speed of Thought", is available through the RunRev store and has a good discussion of the topic but may be a bit introductory level for someone with serious HC experience. Richard Gaskin over at FourthWorld has a great white paper on the message path and how you can extend it with libraries, front and back scripts, etc. (URL: http://www.fourthworld.com/embassy/articles/ revolution_message_path.html).

I'm in the process of switching from HyperCard. I put several handlers & functions in my home stack that are used in other stacks. Where do I put these
scripts in Revolution?
