Idle curiousity, but I've occasionally wondered if it'd be possible
to use AS on a single background thread if you install your own send
proc (to receive Apple events via a dedicated mach port). Or does
the interpreter have other dependencies on the main thread as well?
Maybe you should spend a few minutes with Smile, the SEOS (that's
Script Editor On Steroids) that we make. Download it at
satimage-software.com. The Smile Server beast does what you say, I
think, and for the sake of your curiosity, at www.quomodo.com the
collision you may wonder about (being interrupted to process
AppleEvent n+1 while processing AppleEvent n) happens several times a
day.
In case you work with Smile Server, I think that the interrupt-safe
mode is not really obvious to switch on. You would ask SUL.
