Thank you, Emmanuel.
For good luck, I had tried
tell g to set my var3 to its anotherHandler(var1)
but I didn't think it was going to do much good. But
tell g to set my var3 to its anotherHandler(my var1)
might do better. However, in the called script, there is no property var1.
the only var1 is the one passed as a parameter to anotherHandler(var1).
Since I'm not passing a script object, just a variable representing an
integer (actually, quite a few variables, not just one), the called script
doesn't know who's calling it. Or am I misunderstanding you?
