I think he wants it the other way around, identifying handlers and
functions that aren't called by any other handler. I've done this, but only
one at a time, by searching for the handler name across all open stacks. If
the only occurrence is the handler itself ("on/function whatever", ) then
it's unused.
The method here would probably be to get a list of all handlers and
functions and then do a global search for instances of each. If there's one
or more that isn't the handler declaration, it's used.

Hi.
This was posted a couple of weeks ago, no?
I suggested then that you could write a short handler that loops through
all the scripts in all the controls on all the cards, and isolate words
that are not preceded by either "command", "on" or "function". In this way
you might see, for example, that "myGadget3" may be present in scripts here
and there, but there is no "on myGadget3" anywhere. Then you will have
found an unused handler call.
This may require tweaking. For example, LC will compile, say:
"on myGadget3" -- spaces galore

Subject: Re: Identifying Un-used functions and commands
Since there is code in the script editor that knows the location of any
command or function you right click on, if you found out how they do that,
you would be well on your way to developing a way to grok it. Also, GLX2
has a "clairvoyance" (Auto-Complete) function that is handler aware. I
suspect Mark Wieder developed a method for getting a list of all handlers
in a stack that is opened. That would probably help too.

Hi All,
I’m wondering if anyone has a way or code to identify any un-used functions
and commands in a set of stacks?
Best,
