P.S. Ned, I like your proposal ....
Which one?
* global listener that triggers scripts
* make the ScriptInstantiationMorphs listen for all key events and test in the script (would require some representation of key events)
* make the ScriptInstantiationMorph listen for a specific key event (would require some interaction with the user when they chose to trigger the script with a key event; would require custom display of status)
Seems as though etoys should have a keyboard object/player as a way to get worthwhile properties and behaviors ....
What do you mean by "keyboard object/player"?
