I'm not sure what you mean by include capability, unless it's the load
script function that Brian mentioned. But even with that I don't think
you're safe against parallel execution, depending on what the handler
actually does. If the handler only runs its own code, you should be OK,
but if it runs a command in an application, for example, the parent
script won't wait for that command to finish unless it is actually
waiting for a return value that depends on it. Maybe you could have the
handler return a dummy value based on the result of the external
command, or set a flag and use a repeat until loop.
