One approach would be to write a separate script source--most likely
containing a single function--that does your grunt work, include that
binary in Default.jss with a "use" statement, and call your function
from whichever JAWS event provides the information you require.
Your function would:
? Accept a parameter that contained either an event's output
to be parsed or the number of callers in the cue itself.
? Extract the number of callers if necessary.
? Handle all germane alerts if nCallers is greater than
nMaxCallersBeforeAlert.
