Handler:

on deleteButton

end deleteButton
HyperCard sends the deleteButton message to a button that is being deleted just before the button disappears.

Note: You cannot stop a button from being deleted by trapping the deleteButton message. Instead, you must handle the doMenu message.

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