Well, at least from the mc stack, you just run it and it seems to intercept
the call on the designated port. You can manually change the port in the
launch stack as well.

I needed to check for functions as well. So I adapted the script from

function getHandlers hName,tControl
put the script of card tControl into tScript
put tScript
get lineOffset("on " & hName,tScript)

'function'.
