If you are in the script editor window, you can right click on the name of any handler and select "Go to definition" to display the handler in another tab in the script editor. Of course that means finding a call to the handler you're interested in or just adding a line of code somewhere that calls it.
If the handler isn't in any scripts of objects in memory, the "Go to definition" option will be greyed out. If this is what you need, you should get a copy of Trevor DeVore's "Improve Livecode Handler Finder" plugin which exnds the places where the IDE looks to find a handler.
