Using HC 2.0v2, in an empty stack, put the "set catcher" into the
stack script, then make a button with:

	on mouseUp
	  put script of this stack into s
	  put return & "--" && the date && the time after s

	  -- this set should be caught by the set catcher
	  set script of this stack to s

	  put return & "-- Sorry, Mikey." after s

	  -- this command won't be caught.
	  send "set script of this stack to s" to HyperCard

	  answer script of this stack -- just to see it
	end mouseUp
