Re: RubyInitHandler Problems

Hi Shugo:

Thanks - that worked. But perhaps wasn't what I wanted. What I did want was
to persist a data structure (read in from an external file) across multiple
calls to a .rbx script. What would be the best way of doing that? (Seems
that RubyInitHandler is called at _each_ invocation of a .rbx script.)

Thanks,

Tony
