... Asked Michelle Steiner.

It is possible to have a script with only an 'idle' handler and containing no commands to tell it to quit. I had one of these showing in my Dock only moments ago while reading mail. It will quit only when I choose Quit from the Dock menu. But quit will fail unless there is a 'quit' handler to receive the 'quit' message. The 'quit' handler will look like this ...

on quit
    -- optional stuff
    continue quit
end quit

Without this, it just keeps going and going ...
