deleteStack
Handler:

on deleteStack
   statements
end deleteStack
HyperCard sends the deleteStack message to the current card of the stack that is being deleted.

Note: You cannot stop a stack from being deleted by trapping the deleteStack message. Instead, you must handle the doMenu message or set the cantDelete property for the stack.


Placeholders

statements
Any return-separated list of built-in commands, user-defined handlers, or keywords that are part of a message or function handler.

put "Hello world"   -- built-in command
get total(field 1)  -- function call
global HelpInfo     -- keyword
