Hi Scott et al,
The 'after' handler in the behavior script will be executed even if the control
script itself contains an 'on' handler which forgets to 'pass' the message.
This is really useful for custom controls where you want to allow the developer
to implement standard message handlers but

Yes I agree that is odd. This could stumble you if you were conditionally
putting empty into items, and then acting on an empty value. The last item
would never get processed because it would no longer exist! It goes against the
principle that for computers, empty is not the same as nothing.
It seems that the clone command allows you to bypass the unique stack name
convention of LC.
Let's say I have a substack named Sub1 and another substack named Copy
