So far not a fan...

I'm not quite a fan just yet. I simply declared and initialized a global at the main stack:

There is no value in the global in my mouse handler....

How to see scripts in Rev file?

I downloaded a sample Stack which says the scripts are open for examination. A .rev file was downloaded; how do I see the scripts in the file?

Regards.
