Lol yes max v1.12 (at the same time as maxgui) introduced the event module. It's the same sort of thing as B+'s event system, there so that you rely on proper GUI events to do things, rather than using the polling commands, so that your program only uses as much CPU as it actually needs.

I usually find in the course of rejigging polling code to event based code that any idiosyncracies (sp?) that lay anywhere else in the code are usually spotted during the process. =]
