Hi Chris, Basically, yes. But it is good coding practice to make code that may be used in multiple places into its own handler (even better to make it a handler of a parent script, but that can wait for now). So instead, you would do something similar to the following: put listToString(myLine

Hi Troy, The way Macromedia has explained this is that Director projectors don't actually hog the cpu, they just eat up unused cycles. If I recall correctly, this is aimed to handle animation. Other types of processing can afford to wait--being off by a tenth of a second may not really matter
