All data storage is in zero-terminated strings in fields, local, or global variables; all data references are through "chunk expressions" of the form: 'last item of background field "Name List" of card ID 34217'. Flow of control is event-driven and uses message-passing among scripts that are attached to stack, background, card, field and button objects.
